Welcome to "Rapidly Rotating Records", Glenn Robison's weekly, one-hour radio program of "toe-tapping music from rapidly rotating 78 RPM records of the 1920s and 30s", broadcast Sunday evening at 6:00 PM over KISL FM 88.7 Avalon.

On this week's show, we're going to go on a diet, hear from the hoodoo man and go down a dark alley. Don't be afraid, though, it's only a musical adventure. We're also going to do something we haven't done in a while and that's celebrate a couple of birthdays, in this case, those of William Kernell and Harry Archer.I can't make up my mind whether "Steppin' Along" by the Ipana Troubadors or "Where The Golden Daffodils Grow" by the High Hatters is my favorite song this week.  What's your favorite? Just leave your feedback, requests and/or topic suggestions below. As always, you can listen streaming immediately online and/or download the show by clicking on the link below. Thanks for listening and enjoy the show!
