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 this fellow is? He’s composer Rudolf Friml and he gets a birthday segment on this week’s edition of the show. In other segments, we’ll play “One Thing In Common,” hear some songs about one of my favorite foods (potatoes), bear some aches and pains an have a dope set. 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.
