Some of these tunes are pretty cool and never really made it into the common repertoire in the klezmer revival, not even in the most niche jam sessions as far as I know. The band Budowitz did perform a bunch of them on their Wedding Without a Bride (2000) CD years back, this is the one I could find on youtube.
