Rapidly Rotating Records 78RPM Show – April 10, 2016

This week we're going to get tickled, celebrate the birthdays of Franklyn Baur and Elliott Shaw and have not one, but two segments of holidays, one of them dedicated to Billie Holiday.

In the first segment of the show I mention the new piano roll by Vincent Matthew Johnson of his composition "Tickling Julie."
