A “Goin’ Nowhere” Edition of RRR #1,262 Sept. 22, 2024

Crockett Family Mountaineers

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.

Do you know who these fellers are? They’re the Crockett Family Mountaineers, led by patriarch and fiddler John Harvey Crockett, better known as “Dad.” You’ll hear from and about them in the first segment of this week’s show. On last week’s show you heard “What A Mouth!” from Burt Shepard and you’ll hear four more of his records in the second segment. In other segments, we’ll do some smiling, go absolutely nowhere and don some colorful jackets. There’s lots of great music and interesting information so set aside an hour with your favorite beverage and prepare to be transported back to a different–and we think better–musical era. Just click the link above to listen streaming online and/or download for listening at your convenience.
