Yiddish Curiosities: a library of wonderful but forgotten Yiddish songs from the late 1920s and after (includes Polish Jewish Cabaret). Have a listen!

This song was copyrighted by Aaron Lebedeff in 1923 as "Shabes nuchen kigel" but it has become firmly associated with Mike & Pesachke Burstein (performing it in the video clip above). I have the sheet music, transcription, and translation available for anybody who is interested.
