Rapidly Rotating Records 78 RPM Show – June 13, 2021
from Rapidly Rotating Records · host Glenn Robison
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. This week’s edition of Rapidly Rotating Records starts off with a first time birthday salute to Al Donahue, who made headlines with his 1933 marriage. You’ll find out why in the first segment. In the second segment of the show you’ll hear three records *by* and one record *about* Irish tenor John McCormack. The third segment is devoted to lyricist Neville Fleeson, also getting a birthday salute for the first time. I don’t normally play records from the 1940s, but Fleeson wrote a most unusual song, recorded by Nan Blackstone (BlaKstone). The label is pictured and you’ll hear the record. In the fourth segment we’re gonna get nasty! And we’ll wrap things up with a couple of sugar babies. No, not the caramel candy, but musical sugar babies that are even more delicious! There’s lots of great music and interesting information so set aside an hour with your favorite beverage and be magically transported back to a different (and better!) musical era. But most importantly… ENJOY THE SHOW! 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!
