Volume 183: Six Pages of Patti on 78

Let's finish the first half of the year by turning up the speed. Let’s make it a 78 RPM Sunday. What better voice to do that with than one who sold over 100 million records during a six-decade-long career. She topped the Hot 100 FOUR times and had several songs in the top 10 and 20 over the years. In fact, she was the top-charting female vocalist and best-selling female artist of the 1950s. She was also an early pioneer of a specific recording technique. So, get ready to hear the woman often introduced as the Singin’ Rage in Volume 183: Six Pages of Patti on 78. 00:00 - Season's Show Intro 00:51 - Episode Introduction 01:46 - Little Crazy Quilt 04:19 - First Break: Why I chose these records for this episode and a M*A*S*H connection 05:49 - Cabaret 08:44 - Second Break: More information about the records, marketplace value and what condition my dad's shellac is in. 10:11 - Whispering 12:31 - Third Break: Patti Page Bio  16:18 - Hocus Pocus 18:26 - Fourth Break: this episode's Interesting Side Note. 20:23 - Let Me Go, Lover 22:45 - Quick Extra break to introduce bonus cut 23:16 - Doodle Doo Do 25:43 - Sixth Break: Final Words 27:02 - Keep Me in Mind 29:18 - Close Credits and copyrights Little Crazy Quilt Jack Rael And His Orchestra Written-By – Hal David and Leon Carr Released in 1955 Cabaret Written by Al Russell - Joel Cowan Recorded 24 April 1949 New York City - with an Orchestra Conducted by Mitch Miller.
