RRR 78RPM Show, May 14, 2017

  Welcome to 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. Rapidly Rotating Records Show – May 14, 2017 Welcome to Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can't *not* tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78RPM records of the 1920s and'30s.  Last week I mentioned that on Saturday, May 20, the Art Deco Society of Los Angeles will host the 15th annual Avalon Ball in the Catalina Casino Ballroom. But that's not the only big event going on that week-end. If you can't get to the island, get yourself to Culver City for the Jolson Festival, sponsored by the International Al Jolson Society. Complete information is on the Society's website at www.jolson.org. And in honor of the Jolson Festival, the third segment of this week's show is devoted to Al Jolson. We're also going to spend some time in the kitchen, do some weeping, and celebrate Douglas Furber's birthday and Mother's Day. Several records on this week's show are making their RRR debut, so let us know which is your favorite. RRR is also available as a podcast on iTunes.
