The Recorded Sound Archives (RSA) is a unit of FAU Libraries Special Collections department. We are located in the Wimberly Library on FAU's Boca Raton campus.

Originally established in 2002 as a small project dedicated to the preservation of recorded Jewish music, it has matured into a robust digitization operation for all types of sound recordings.

Notes The 12 tunes on this album include a few repeats from previous albums, but Bell's humor still abounds. Most of the songs are in Yiddish with some English and Hebrew interspersed. But even if you are not fluent in Yiddish or Hebrew you will get the gist of what Bell is communicating. A wonderful mix of nostalgia and laughter.

Recordings restricted by copyright will only play 45 seconds to give you a sense of what that recording originally sounded like. These recordings can be identified by the words (Research Station) in the music player.
