1.0 out of 5 stars Ouy vey, March 31, 2004

This will only appeal to people who think the entirity of the Jewish people is gefilte fish and "fiddler on the roof". There's tons of great wedding (simcha) music out there, but you still won't find it on Amazon. You can broaden your search on Amazon and see Amazon seller MostlyMusic (the largest seller of Jewish music both on Amazon and on the web) instead, you won't regret it when everyone at the wedding is dancing up a storm!

2.0 out of 5 stars not wedding music, April 14, 2006

*wedding* favorites??? I don't think so! Music from Fiddler is nice, but it's still Broadway. Hava Nagila may be useful, but it sure is trite--So much great other fast music, why go with that one?! Raisins and Almonds is a lullaby! Do they know something about the bride that we don't?! My Yiddishe Momme is a sad song. Not the best for a wedding. Dona Dona is a song of suffering and freedom, a song that dates back at least to the '40s and has taken folk-song status--again, not really for a wedding. So, this may not be a bad album, it's just not wedding music.

This is maybe my favorite CD (I have close to 100) -- and I am NOT even Jewish!
