Sings Jewish Favorites - 4987

About the Artist Connie Francis is considered by many to be the premier female vocalist of the 1950s and early 1960s. After one listen to "Connie Francis Sings Jewish Favorites" you will be thoroughly convinced of the same - adding the word ‘versatile’ to the mix. Connie had previous recordings on the MGM label with a similar ‘international’ flavor, which seemed to be as de rigueur back then as the International House of Pancakes restaurant chain, which was created in the late 1950s… The jet age made neighboring continents more easily reachable and of more in interest in popular culture. The MGM albums "Italian Favorites" and "Spanish Favorites" were both impressively, if not flawlessly, performed in ‘native tongues.’ One might have predicted an album of French love songs to follow, but instead, Connie (born Concetta Rosemarie Franconero in Newark, NJ) chose the challenge of tackling a set of traditional Yiddish folk songs! (Oy, the tsuris of being a female pop icon in the Eisenhower era…) Product description MGM High Fidelity Stereo SE3869 A High Fidelity Recording Havah Negilah , Yossel Yossel , Tzena Tzena and others
