Rapidly Rotating Records 78 RPM Show – March 8, 2020

Welcome to Glenn Robison’s 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.

On this week’s show we’re going to do some sharing, we’ll belatedly celebrate Mardi Gras, we’ll do some singing, have a vocabulary less on and play some tricks. There are at least a couple of records and artists making their RRR debut and there’s even more background information in this show than usual, but with a little faster talking, I was still able to squeeze in 15 great records. I hope you find the insights and information as fascinating as I do and your feedback, questions, requests and topic suggestions are always welcome. I hope to hear from you by email or on the website or the show’s Facebook page. Thanks for listening!

Thank you for your very kind attention!

Enjoy the show!
