I am an occasional visitor to your site and quite by chance I checked in today. I am impressed by the dedication and thoroughness with which you approach your project, even though your main musical focus is not the same as mine. I am into classical and jazz more than rock and country.
ReplyDeleteDuring a quick perusal of your list of Apollo records the name Cantor Botoshansky caught my eye, and yes it was Mario Botoshansky, who was the cantor in my synagogue in the Bronx when I had my Bar Mitvah in 1960. It was so nice to hear his beautiful voice once again, especially since I had no idea that he had made any records. I only wish he had recorded some cantorial music which I remember him doing beautifully.
So thank you for the delightful surprise.
Are you aware of any other recordings by him? I searched but I think I misspelled his name.
No I have not found any more by him as yet. Dean
DeleteHere are the 2 missing tracks by the Reliable Gospel Singers

Big Thanks for the missing tracks Dean
DeleteMany thanks
ReplyDeleteThanks for the listings
ReplyDelete134/135/136 are a 3disc album (A-10) by Mary Kaaihue - you can find it on discogs. It lists the trax but only gives the matrices - they are in order: 134 = 2070/73; 135 = 2069/72; 136 = 2070/71. I know they've duplicated 2070 but as you just need the titles that should work nicely.
Thank you I'll add it. Melanie & Dean
