\"Album
Album Cover of Baby Snooks by Fanny Brice<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

<\/a>You might be able to imagine the excitement that is generated at the Judaica Sound Archives whenever we uncover a genuine piece of history. Today I will share with you three 78 rpm albums from the Jack Saul Collection which have sitirred up some nostalgia here at the JSA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(1)  Fanny Brice<\/strong> starred in the Ziegfeld Follies in the 1920s and 1930s. A pioneer female comic, she was one of the most popular Jewish entertainers of her day. And her fame became even greater when Barbra Streisand played the starring role in Brice\u2019s life story, \u201cFunny Girl\u201d <\/em>(1968). From 1938 until her death in 1951 Brice had an incredibly successful radio show based on just one character, Baby Snooks, a precocious, bratty toddler. This album of three double-sided 78 rpm recordings was produced in 1949 on the Capitol Records label.<\/p>\n\n\n

\"Album<\/a>
Album cover of Brooklyn Baseball Cantata<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

<\/a>(2)  Born in Brooklyn, NY as Moishe Miller Robert Merrill <\/strong>became one of the Metropolitan Opera’s most enduring and acclaimed baritones. He was also a famous baseball fan who often sang the National Anthem on opening day at Yankee Stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1948 he recorded Brooklyn Baseball Cantata<\/strong><\/em> <\/a>about an imagined World Series game between the Brooklyn Dodgers and the Yankees. Unlike the real world where the Dodgers consistently blew their chances, in this imaginary game the Dodgers were the winners! Fantasy became reality in 1955 when the Brooklyn Dodgers did actually beat the NY Yankees to win the World Series for the first and only time. This album of two double-sided 78 rpm recordings was produced on the RCA Victor Red Seal label. The sheet music, produced by Mills Music, which originally sold for $1.25 is included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
