In the 1980s, Black Panthers' activist Kochavi Shemesh opened a bar on Tel Aviv's Dizengoff Street called "Red Bar." When he suggested to Danny Ben Yisrael to stage a show at the bar, Ben Yisrael suggested a show called "the Eshkenazi Revolution." Shemesh loved the idea, and Ben Yisrael promptly came up with a Yiddish show of songs and sketches, featuring Nira Rabinovitch, Miriam Fuchs, (remembered from the Chibuteru TV campaign), and legendary actor Raphael Klatchkin, already in his seventies. Ben Yisrael hoped to produce an LP of the show's songs, but had money for the production of only two tracks - Hu Achal Ota / Hot er Gegesen - featured here, half in Hebrew half in Yiddish, and a Yiddish version of the Israeli Medirranean Style Hit "HaMeantezet," which was never released. This track was never released on an LP or CD. The single is pressed on both sides, with identical versions of the song. The labels, written with a marker, read: "HaMahapecha Ha'Eshkenazit, Danny Ben Yisrael." Ben Yisrael served as a musician in the Northern Command Troupe. He is mostly remembered and appreciated for his independently-produced, groundbreaking, psychedelic 1970 album "Chantarish Shalosh Va'Reva." A commercial failure at the time, now considered a landmark. VG-. No cover.
