Who was Leo Fuld?

Lazarus 'Leo' Fuld was a Dutch singer who specialised in Yiddish songs.

Prior to World War II, Leo Fuld was one of the most popular recording and concert artists in Europe. Possessing an instantaneously recognizable voice, Fuld recorded throughout Europe and the Americas in many languages, including Yiddish, English, German, French, Hebrew and Dutch. His career after the war once again made his name popular throughout the world, and on the most prestigious night club and concert stages. At 83 he recorded probably his best record ever, called the Sergeant Pepper of Yiddish music by Abe Goldstein.
