Rapidly Rotating Records 78 RPM Show – December 20, 2020

Welcome to Glenn Robison’s Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can’t *not* tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78 RPM records of the 1920s and ’30s.I hope you are all safe and healthy and doing as well as you can be given the current world situation and stay-at-home orders and that this hour of music gives you a bit of diversion and entertainment. Thanks for listening and best wishes! ENJOY THE SHOW! This week’s edition of Rapidly Rotating Records will being and end with two *extremely* different readings of Clement Clarke Moore’s “‘Twas The Night Before Christmas” but that’s the extent of the Christmas “music” this year. In the third segment of the show we’ll take a musical trip to Shanghai, which accounts for the illustrations above.  You’ll hear a snippet from “From Here To Shanhai” by Collins and Harlan which mentions the famous Chinese magician Ching Ling Foo.  In other segments, we’ll hear some *very* creative rhyming, and get “shot,” but don’t worry, not by bullets. What is the plural of “Dolores.” Doloreses or Doloresi? I ask because we’ll also have a segment with multiple songs about Dolores. There’s plenty of great music and what I think is some fascinating information, so prepare your favorite Yuletide beverage (I think I’ll have a Candy Cane Martini!), get comfortable and click below to listen streaming online and/or download for listening at your convenience.
