PLAYLIST SUNDAY SIMCHA JUlY 18, 2010

Comments, queries, requests and general kvetching is always welcome via e mail to sundaysimcha@yahoo.com

For the observant of you (not in the religious sense) you will have noticed that today's program was an "encore" aka "re-run" of a program from approx. 3 years ago.   Hot summer days and lack of time this week precluded a new program---a new ones will be there next week---with a few surprises.   It is hoped you did not call for tickets for the December concerts that were announced---they were well attended.

A few pictures to put the some of the voices this week:
