146 - Station Breaks (1957)

Elegie to a Pet RobinAire for TrumpetRock Without Rollin'A Dream Takes Only a MinuteWritten and scored by Alec WilderFrom LP Station Breaks (Golden Crest CR 3034), conducted by Jack Zimmermann"Station Breaks--One Minute Spots--were planned originally as a professional music service to disk jockeys. All of the original compositions in this album are precisely 60 seconds in length. They were especially written to be used as musical 'fillers' when needed to complete a segment of air time on a radio program. There are times when even the most glib disk jockey finds himself at a loss for words and is delighted to be helped out by dependable compositions such as these."
