When the melody drifted into "Ha Vey Nu Shalom Aleikhum" I started singing along. All the folk songs, tunes from Yiddish theater, things my peers were singing instead of the top 40 songs on the radio (early British Invasion, the Dave Clarke Five, girl groups 1960 to 1964 and "protest songs") I once considered converting to Judaism because I felt everybody was picking on me - it seemed that everybody picked on Jews anyway. And the odd harmonies and rhythms of klezmer music appealed to my xenophilia.
