I'm enclosing a tape onto which I copied the Niggunim from thetapes I've transcribed.  Most of the niggunim are familiar, butthere were a few I'd not heard, which is why I'm sending them toyou.   My copies of the tapes came from Haskala Sasson, except for=sh9312ha, which was originally taped by Yakov Rottenberg. Listing follows:

1) Input=sh76050b, Transcript (HS) =A1
 May 5, 1976, B'nei Jeshrun, NYC, 2 Tapes:  Niggunim only on tape2:  
	Side A {022-084},  familiar
	Side B {260--347}  familiar, *but cadenza may have some 
                                  less familiar features

2a) Input=sh76051a, Transcript (HS) =A2
	May 11, 1976, B'nei Jeshrun, NYC, 2 Tapes
TAPE 1:
	SIDE A {000-<200} 3 Niggunim
         lst is well-known
         *2nd is not well-known, hazanut-style descant
         3rd is  less well-known, jolly tempo
2b) TAPE 2:
	Input=sh76051b, Transcript (HS) = A2
		SIDE A {100} -- L'Yerushalim -- Poor recording
                 {900} -- Aishe Hayil
		SIDE B {000  -- Niggun for counting of omer, uncommon, 
                          *with hazzanut improvisation
                          short teaching *spoken to guitar
                          Niggun, v'shomru b'nei Yisroel
                          * Niggun, uncommon, slow, free-form

3) =sh840101, Jan. 1, 1984, Old City? Joel Glick's? 
	SIDE B:  {100}
		Niggun, familiar, vigorous
START SIDE B OF THIS TAPE
		Shabbat niggun, familiar
		** Niggun, slow, not familiar
		Niggun, v'shomru b'nei Yisrael
		Niggun, shomer Yisrael
At this point I backed up and copied 3 stories from this tape,because one can not do justice in transcription to R. Shlomo'stellling.  The lst is about his first years as a guitar player,the 2nd is minor, about a mezzuzah, the 3rd is about the BoboverRebbe's first tour of New York City.

4) =sh920317, R. Shlomo at your house, Pre-Purim 3/17/92
		Niggun, familiar

5) =sh9312ha
		Hanuka 1993, R. Yankele Shames' home, Modi'in
		SIDE A, {000--300}
			lst niggun --  seems familiar
			*2nd niggun -- not familiar, lyrical
			*3rd niggun -- unfamiliar, very lyrical
