He also talks about the acquirement of all 85,000 record copies of the Metro Music collection by the National Yiddish Book Center. Metro Music was a New York publisher of Jewish music that went out of business in 1970, and its entire collection was acquired and put on sale by the National Yiddish Book Center.
