Make Believe Ballroom - Ralphie's Record Club List - New Season Episode 1

Hi folks, I’m Jeff Bressler turning on the lights of the Make Believe Ballroom and welcoming you into my crystal studio for a very special new season of programs that we’re calling Ralphie’s list. We received an email here at the ballroom a few years ago from Angelo a longtime listener from Naples FL by way of Canarsie Brooklyn whose Parents Ralphie and Rose started a record club, inviting neighbors to their home every other Saturday night from 1935 to the mid 1970’s to share pot luck suppers and listen and dance to the greatest big band hits of the 1930s and ’40s. Ralphie and the club painstakingly compiled over the decades a list of over 750 of their favorite ranked tunes. So, sit back and listen as we bring you selections each week from the legendary Ralphie’s list.
