Great selection of artists. Thanks for the updates.
Your collection was referred to me by Rabbi Michael Cain of Sunrise Fl, who heard you speak at a shul in Tamarac. My mother just passed away and there are a number of 33rpm records of Jewish music which I would like to donate to your project in memory of my parents, Larry & Sylvia Goldstein. Please advise how I can do this. Thank you. Joyce Rose, Daughter
