I love Idelsohn’s 2011 Hanukkah mix. I also love Tikva’s pop up store, which I visited last week and gave a “shout out” on my jazz blog, Bluely Noted. We’re doing our own “Gelty Pleasures: A Bluely Noted Hanukkah” mix right now! I hope you enjoy it as much as I’m enjoying yours.
Listening (yet again) to this fabulous music mix!
Thank You so much for sharing it, and for “popping up” in San Francisco this year. Hopefully it will become a regular occurrence???
I won’t be able to be there tonight, but my chaver Bob and his family will be there tonight.
Have a wonderful time, everyone!!!
Chag Sameach and Happy Chanukah,
