Good evening. Good evening.
And it's nice to be back in Brooklyn for
a change.
[Applause]
[Music]
I was just
a short while ago
in edit for a concert. Was anyone there?
[Applause]
It was difficult to tell from where I
was standing
how many Americans and how many Brooklyn
knits were there.
[Music]
anyone from Seagate there? No, not
really. Except for me.
[Music]
Anyway,
there was one very special thing about
that concert. as you saw
besides Vasig at the Kis Marovi not
talking about that
but the fact that there were ble
10,000 Eden there and from the 10,000 I
would say there were six to 7,000 men
and they were all singing along so that
was really something special
and I said on the way home to Shia
on the way home I said to Shia menlitz
you You know, if there were 10,000
Americans at the concert, you'd probably
hear them twice as well because the
Israelis and Nazis.
[Applause]
I mean, you're no offense. I know you're
Israeli,
but you're not sure anymore, right?
I'll tell you one thing. Yon may be a
real Israeli, but the famous words of
Iran will never I'll never forget. He
said to me, "You know something, Israeli
are really difficult people to deal
with."
[Applause]
No, he honestly he really came to
America just for a couple years of
school and he's going right back. How
many years ago was that?
But he is going back. Believe me, he's
going back. He's not going to stay here
cuz no one's going to stay here. We're
all going to go there, right?
[Applause]
Okay. I'd like to do a very special song
that's dear to my heart.
Right. We promise you you're all going
in.
I'd like to do a special song, but I
really uh Oh, I see some Gishmak here in
the front. Uh,
who am I stepping on? Your coat. As long
as it's not your suspended me.
[Applause]

Well, this is his son, Gashon. How about
a great hand for him?
I know he's a little bit nervous, but
I'm telling you, Gishon, nothing to be
nervous about. I've been doing this for
years, and I'm still nervous. Don't

Thank you.
Thank you so much.
There is a very very beautiful song
that was composed
by a dear colleague of mine from the H
family, Mr. AB Rottenberg.
[Applause]
And at the last house concert,
my friend and colleague Mr. Yon
Gishovski did a special piece on that
particular song.
What is this doing here? Said that makes
a difference.
Helping, healing, feeding, sheltering,
protecting, caring, guarding, building,
teaching. Are you into the stuff? This
is great.
rescuing, sharing, educating,
nurturing, loving, comforting,
assisting, learning, fixing,
it sounds like kabad a pment probably,
right?
Simmyi Weber,
good job.
Anyway, I'd like to do this song just
with my friend Yaron
and with the help of uh the Brooklyn
College audience. We have here tonight,
my choir. My Brooklyn choir.

Thank you so much.
[Applause]
[Music]
much better than the Israeli choir. No
question about it.
[Music]
[Applause]
Okay, I'd like to take an opportunity to
do something very special and unique.
I've had the
great pleasure and honor of working with
most of this band for a long time, but
especially
Bones Malone. You recognize him, huh?
But especially my conductor and piano
player who has flown with me practically
all over the world to South Africa, to
Europe,
Mexico,
Brazil. Vansvelt
Mr. Aron Gishovski.
[Applause]
[Music]
He also has a side job when he's not
working with me. He's the musical
director of the Manhattan Transfer
[Applause]
and he really is the greatest keyboard
player that I've ever heard in my life
and I'm sure same goes for you. So, I'd
like to ask him to do a special
rendition of one of his favorite songs,
his own solo with the band. Mr. Yon
Girishovski

Yeah, he ain't,
you know.
[Music]
We're living in a very
interesting and difficult time. I'm sure
you all notice what's going on.
[Music]
Yeah, we need Msiah more than ever
before.
No question about it.
I mean, just think for a moment
[Applause]
of the political arena
that's been going on in the entire
world.
[Music]
Just cool it. Okay.
I mean, just in our city.
Take a look. at the last couple of weeks
of a crazy bizarre incident,
a result of a pgram that actually took
place a year ago in Crown Heights.
[Music]
And it's just unbelievable
to see
that an open-end shut case like that was
dismissed as nothing.
But that's not the only thing that's
going on.
If you've heard
everything that's taking place in
Europe,
the anti-semitism in Italy
and who wants to mention the name of the
other country in Europe
where those people are trying to raise
their heads again.
A lot of strange things are taking
place.
And of course,
all these little messages
are only reminders
for all of us here and all over the
world
to stop and think for a moment
and make
I'd like to dedicate this next song to
Yank Rosenbalam.

You know, with Shia producing concerts,
the weirdest things happen. He's
promised me a guest surprise for
tonight, but he wasn't sure he's gonna
make it tonight. Someone who I've sung
on stage with before, and I think you
may recognize his voice. I'll go check
if he's here. Okay.

[Applause]
Thank you. Thank you, ladies and
gentlemen.
[Music]
I just want to say two words.
What does it take in 1992
for someone who wants to hear some good
Jewish music?
All he has to do is walk into a store
and pick up a tape. Cost him a few
dollars, but that's it.
Or buy buy a ticket to a concert and
enjoy a beautiful evening. But what goes
in behind that tape that you pick off
the shelf involves tremendous amount of
talent.
Not just talent of composers and
arrangers and musicians and producers
etc.
but also someone to put all these people
together to produce the wonderful music
that we have today. Please everyone give
a round of applause for Shia Menowitz
for all the wonderful work that he has
done for us here.
[Music]
I'll tell you the truth, the first time
I heard him
called me one day and he said, "I have
something for you to listen to." So he
plays me a song
and I'm listening to it and I say,
"Okay, so what do you want me to say?" I
mean, this is an old song. This is I've
heard this before. He said, "No, who's
singing the song?" I said, "What do you
mean who's singing the song?" I thought
it was Ramul, but it was very good.
Excellent. Excellent. Za, good.
[Applause]
[Music]
1 2 1 2 3
[Music]
And I find I
[Music]
I
see the light.
[Music]
I
see the lion
head.
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
Oh dear.
[Music]
Oh yeah.
[Music]
I am
seeing
[Music]
I
see the
head
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
see the
[Music]
night.
[Music]

[Music]

Oh.
[Music]
Oh yeah.
[Music]
Oh
god.
[Music]
D
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
Okay, okay, okay. Bashem,
let me tell you something. There's no
question about it.
If I had you guys in Israel, huh? Quite
a quiet. Where were you?
Tell them the truth. Huh?
[Applause]
[Music]
In the last couple of years,
I got to know a family and organization.
Actually,
someone sent me a check.
[Music]
Okay, no problem.
Is it covered in the bank?
Not covered.
I got to meet a family in Israel. A very
special family.
The Artl family, right?
Actually, I uh I met their son Manimal
when he was struggling
with a dreadful disease
since the age of I think it was a year
and a half until he finally succumbed at
the age of 15 and a half.
And every mate Shabas
many brim from Misha Satis and Shalim
from different places entertainers like
Borak Chait and others would come to his
house
to entertain and to try to make him and
his family
a little bit cheerful to forget about
the problems.
At one of these occasions,
[Music]
Manakim turned around to Borak, the
famous composer of the rabbi's sons,
also composed a song, which I sang for
many years. And he said to him, "Borak,
I have a special request.
I want you to compose a song for me
right now, especially for me."
And said to him, I can try, but uh I'm
not sure I'll succeed.
And he turns around to say to him,
"Well, why don't you pick the words and
I'll try to strum a melody?"
So he opened up to Tahilim,
spontaneous, of course, and he said,
"This is the song that I'd like you to
write for me."
And this is the song that did
come out that night and I'd like to
share it with you.

[Music]
Okay, before we uh move on to the next
song, just like to take two seconds of
your time. and remind everyone here
tonight
that we're all Yeah. Whoever didn't have
Mar shouldn't forget to d Mar.
But on a serious note.
Continuing with what I began before
I think it's a duty in every one of us
to try to do whatever they can.
And they're not difficult things.
They're just little things in life. I
remember sitting with one night at what
we used to call him
and before we sang the song which was
composed by
the old song from the rabbi sons
everyone took upon themselves
to really try to learn a little bit of
sal every day 10 minutes
which can really bring ami together
and it's just little things like that
is to be matter to someone else even
though we feel like giving it to them.
And these are the things that will
really bring Mashiach closer.
[Applause]

Come on.
