Rapidly Rotating Records 78RPM Show – August 27, 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. 

On this week's edition of the show, we'll hear the latest buzz, hear about Ida, play peek-a-boo, play some numbers and celebrate–a bit belatedly–the birthday of a legend of show business, Rose Marie. Per usual, there are at least a couple of records making their RRR debut. If you enjoy the show, please let us know by leaving a comment on the website or the Facebook page or sending an email.
