Album Notes

Huddled around our campfires or standing on the camp dining room tables singing after meals on the top of our lungs, the American-Jewish Youth have created their own personal worship and celebratory music.

Today, four decades later, the baby boomer campers of the 60's are the Synagogue leaders, the new senior Rabbis, Cantors and Temple Presidents.

Their songs are still being sung by their kids and grandchildren today.

Including, Debbie Friedman, Craig Taubman, Sam Glaser, And More!

I was looking for some Jewish music for my kids, and came across this CD while browsing on CD Baby.  They love the songs and it's nice for me to remember songs of my youth... Some songs have stood the test of time better than others, but all in all the CD is a good choice.

It's just what I was looking for

I bought it for my daughter for a Hannukah present, but I opened it and play it to and from work. I love it. The songs are beautiful. I'll just wrap it again when it's time to give it to her.
