Hi Everyone!
I added 3 new Youtube playlists to my playlist page:
https://jr.co.il/yp
* The Midnight Special
* Yiddish Songs - Male
* Yiddish Songs - Female
The first addition is a selection of English songs that were
performed live on the Midnight Special back in the 70s.
Wolfman Jack hosted the show from 1973 to 1981.
The two Yiddish groups include known oldie songs.
As a start, I included many songs performed by Theodore Bikel
and on the the female list the Barry sisters.
I do not know Yiddish, so I welcome song recommendations
that are on Youtube and are sharable.
I noticed on Youtube, that there are several "flirtatious"
female groups that are working on jazzing up Yidish oldies.
Nice idea but I think several have gone overboard.
I will pass on them and any Yiddish songs that I consider
stepping out of bounds. Yes, this will be problematic
because I do not know the language. I will need to review
suggestions with friends.
As many of you may have noticed, over the past several months,v Youtube has been pushing way too many ads at visitors. I use
their free service and the ads are not that bad when playing a
ready made playlist. As the saying goes, "no free lunches".
I continue to update the podcasts list at:
https://jr.co.il/links/#podcasts
There are 84 podcasts that you can listen to at home, office or
on the move.
Besides Youtube, I have 42 playlists on Spotify at:

I also use their free service, Audio ads pop after several songs.
The new playlists include:
* Y-Studs
* Kippalive
* Six13
* The Maccabeats
* Kids Hebrew Short Stories
* Yiddish - Male Vocals
* Yiddish - Female Vocals
On Youtube, I watch various podcasts, live news, and high-tech videos.
For music, I usually listen to my mp3 collection on my phone.
Over the years, I extracted the music files from my CDs to mp3 files
and loaded many onto my phone. I no longer use the CDs.
Using the free VLC Android phone app, I created my own personal playlists.
I also have a Windows version of VLC on my computer, which I use to
play music and videos.
I am not connected or affliated to the VLC development group
but I highly recommend this free, open source program.
Enjoy the music and please share. Thank you!.
Please continue to pray for and support Israel.

May the wounded have a complete and speedy recovery.
May the hostages be freed now.
May God protect the IDF, the police, the security forces
and all of Am Yisrael.
Have a good week!
Shavua Tov!
