=sh_yr069      64454, 4 Dec 97
TRANSCRIPTION OF %YR069
Sound quality ok.
No songs.
Teaching is at the Witts; customarily late; maybe evening of Teshab'Av; certainly within the 9 days.   
Year:  EW says:  some time ago.  ca. 1990? 
Level: intermediate. 
I.  TEACHINGS OF THE APTER REBBE, ON FASTING, AND ON THEPROHIBITION OF MUSIC
II.  REB NACHMAN ON MAGNETISM, 
	TESHA B'AV; Being drawn vs. forcing oneself;   
Reb Nachman teaches: You can't learn Torah if you hate anotherJew.
	Story of Reb Pinchas Koretzer:  he asked that everyone wouldhate him, so that he could have more time to study; and found outat Sukkot that even the Ushpizim didn't care for him. 
Reb Nachman:  Magnetism on the 15th of Av; being drawn on Teshab'Av; magnetism between parents and children; magnetism of eretzIsrael, the land, not of forcing, but the land where everything isa miracle. 
{REB NACHMAN ON NEKUDOT:}  
{Side B:}
CONTINUATION OF REB NACHMAN ON MAGNETISM.  
Av is month of hearing. 
Ishbitzer teaching:  Yitzak Avinu and Moshe Rabbenu are theexperts on eretz Israel -- hearing and seeing.
Teaching from the Zohar, and from the Midrash, on the rebuildingof the Temple. 
Brief annecdotes of Rebbes.  
[I think it's that:  miracles, Meshiach, the rebuilding of theTemple, are beyond time and space. ]

SH_YR083            53,277 05-23-97   2:57p
	Collection:  The Rottenberg Horde
	Copies held by:  Avraham Sands, Meor Modi'in
	Listed by:  BZ
	Venue:  Apparently Grossinger's, after a concert
		Day is apparently Tu b'Shvat, 
		Year:  n/a:  but after Founding of Moshav 
	    		After cable television was common thereabouts.
             Song features:  Uva'u Ha-Ovdim, which I note,probably from B-Z, as composed 1974 Catskills
Level: Elementary
Structure:  Mostly singing, interspersed with short teachings, forpaying customers with a short attention-span.

Theme:  Theme seems to be:  Not-Knowing.

SH_YR108            51,375 05-26-97  10:54p
	Collection:  The Rottenberg Horde
	Side A labeled clearly:  Shlomo on (I) Tshuva, (II) MarChesvan, (III) Chanuka.  Added note, probably YR:  Gevalt.
	Side B labeled:  Shlomo, Chunak, continued; (IV) Tehillim119.
This is not one teaching, but a group of teachings.   HOwever,they all seem to have been primarily dicatated to tape, notprimarily addressed to a group.  A group is present for the firstpart; but does not appear present for subsequent parts.

	MY GUESS IS this was the tape dictated for Yael & Tzlotana. 

	PART I is on Tchuva.  It appears to be pre-Yom Kippur.
	PART II focuses on Sukkot - Simchat Tora.  It appears to bebetween Yom Kippur and Sukkot.
	PART III in on MARCHESVAN.  This is the first teaching Irecall having bumped into on MarChesvan; so it fills a gap ifanyone wants to compile teachings for each month. Teaching seemsto have been given after Sukkot and before MarChesvan.
	PART IV is a short teaching of Pslam 119, Ashrei.  It is lessthan half audible.
	There are no songs.
--------------------------------------------------------------
=sh_yr105
	That tape has no English teachings, so this document is ust alisting of its contents.
----------------------------------------------------------

=sh_yr190
	Wedding, Nehemia & Dvora.  

This was one of the tapes transcribed by Alon Teager at Modi'inca. 1988; most of that input was lost in a 5.25" floppy drivesnafu; but output survived, and the output of this transcriptionwas one of those I noted in the Witt collection.  I noted it asW/S-D.
	=sh_yr190 is my transcription from tape, I have not checkedit against the output in the Witt collection. 
	There are a few short teachings, but my transcription isgenerally inadequate, because the teaching was hard to hear.

No English teachings.
A number of short Hebrew teachings, with Yakov Rottenberg notes asvery good.   SO THE HEBREW SHOULD BE TRANSCRIBED.
