Rapidly Rotating Records 78 RPM Show – July 18, 2021

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. The idea of daylight saving time (NOT daylight savingS time!) goes back to New Zealand in the 1800s.  There have been campaigns for and against is ever since. In the third segment of this week’s edition of Rapidly Rotating Records, you’ll hear a song that was written specifically to oppose Proposition 7 on the California ballot in 1930 and find out the story behind it. In the first segment of the show we’ll do some “crowing,” and in the second segment, we’ll celebrate Bert Van Cleve’s birthday. In the fourth segment we’ll have some song about asses (as in donkeys!). The final segment of the show has just one record, by the way.  There’s lots of great music and interesting information so set aside an hour with your favorite beverage and be magically transported back to an earlier (and we think better!) musical era. But most of all… ENJOY THE SHOW! Thanks for listening! Your comments, questions, requests and topic suggestions are always welcome and can be posted here, on the show’s Facebook page or sent by email or even by postal mail! Best wishes!
