Morey Amsterdam also recorded for Apollo. I have "No Money (Is a Very Sorry Thing)" b/w "Yuk-a-Puk" on disc # 1095, which was apparently a pop series. The only other Apollo I have with a four digit number is one of Dean Martin's earliest records, "Oh! Marie" b/w "Walkin' My Baby Back Home" on 1088.

If anyone is interested, I have a duplicate copy of Apollo 180 by the Barton Brothers. Titles are "Cut, Speech" parts 1 & 2. Bids, anyone?

Subject: [78-L] Sam Levinson, was yiddish Home on the Range



I'm still digging through all my newly acquired records,  don't have any Sam
Levinson, but just came across  two  more  pretty interesting records,  on
LP,  and I have not listened to them:

There's Harry Golden, on a Vanguard label.  and   Gertrude Berg on the Amy
label.  Her  albukm is titled How to be a Jewish Mother, a very lovely
training manual by Dan Greenburg.  It has to be next on my turntable. I
remember  the Gertrude Berg show on early television,  wait a minute, was it
called the Goldbergs?  I  can still see  Molly hanging out the window,
yoo-hoo-ing  a neighbor for a chat.
