...of angels and horseradish
                (1989, Northeastern)

Shirim’s first album has a very traditional sound while it  includes many original compositions. It features five instrumentals by Glenn Dickson, including the first recording of the ground-breaking "The Black Wedding," and two original songs by vocalist Rosalie Gerut. The album is filled out with some classic Yiddish folk and theater songs as well as a burning post-bop arrangement of "And the Angels Sing." One fascinating feature of the album is the Barry Sister’s-style dual vocals of Betty Silberman and Rosalie Gerut, two of the finest Yiddish singers of this generation
