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.

This week, it’s another “One Thing In Common” edition of the show. We’ve got 15 very diverse records including one make in Helsinki, Finland in 1939, a record made in Paris and one of a Rachmaninoff tune, but all of the records on this show have one thing in common. You’ll find out at the end what that commonality is, but as a hint, it has nothing to do with the composers, artists, labels or dates, but everything to do with the song titles. 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. And remember, your requests and topic segments are always welcome. As always, just click on the link below to instantly listen streaming online and/or download the show.

Enjoy the show!
