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.

It is said that nothing is free, but that’s not exactly true. Listen to the second segment of the show to find out how you can get a free subscription to The Syncopated Times, the national newspaper devoted to exploring the worlds of jazz, ragtime and swing. We’ll also have a wonderful set of “free” songs in the segment. Also on this week’s show we’ll find out the answer to the question “Why Do I Love You,” we’ll take a musical trip to Morocco, we’ll delve into the deep, ark forest and celebrate some birthdays.There are at least a couple of records making their RRR debut.
