"The Arab" Dutch Street Organ & "Top Ten Amsterdam"
By Francy Reitz

The Travel Channel (on cable) has a program entitled "Top Ten
Amsterdam" scheduled for Wednesday, November 21 at 9 PM CST, on
Nov. 22 at 12 noon CST, and on Nov. 25 at 6 PM CST.  It doesn't
appear to be the same program as "Red Light Amsterdam" which was
on TV last February, but the promos mention that area of the city.
Maybe the Dutch street organ, "The Arab", will be shown again.

Does anyone know if there are any CD's of "The Arab" available and
how to get one?  "The Arab" was the first recording, an LP, of
mechanical music I ever heard. My future husband owned it, and we
still have it.  "The Arab" continues to be one of my favorites,
and I sure would like to own a CD of it now.
