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.

Unbelievable but true! The record above starts off the second segment of this week’s show, a trio of “unbelievable” tunes. In other segments, we’ll celebrate Larry Wagner’s birthday and enjoy a heapin’ helping of biscuits and gravy. Having slopped some, we’ll have to do the wash and we’ll marvel at some things. 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.
