hi, I love that Shpil du Fidl too; we have a version soon to be released by Metropolitan Klezmer. Just two little things which I notice on the Maxwell St version which differ from Picon's lyrics as delivered in the film "Yidl mitn fidl" (these were points which Yankl Salant at YIVO helped me with a few months back, so I'm passing along the results of his careful listening... this is in YIVO orthography):
on the soundtrack, Molly Picon sings "libe-lid" rather than libes-lid. And Picon has it as "nor du veyst aleyn, vi es nogt un tsit" [how it haunts/gnaws and tugs/pulls] rather than "nor du veyst aleyn, vi azoy ikh fil". If it's published elsewhere in a different version, I'd be interested to know that.
