The gentleman on the sheet music above is Nat Vincent, whose birthday we’ll be celebrating in the first segment of this week’s edition of the show. Nat Vincent co-wrote the lyrics to “I’m Forever Blowing Bubbles,” a huge hit in 1920, but he wasn’t credited under that name. Find out why and who was credited in the first segment of this week’s edition of the show. Nat Vincent was credited for “Pucker Up And Whistle” which you’ll hear performed by the Merry Melody Men. We’ll also be celebrating the birthdays of Glenn Rowell and Joe Sullivan. In the fourth segment we’re going to go on a honeymoon. And as a public educational service, we’ll be having a vocabulary lesson to wrap up the show. 

There’s lots of great music and interesting information, so set aside an hour with your favorite beverage and be magically transported back to a different–and we think better–musical era.   Click on the audio player above to listen streaming online and/or download the show to listen at your convenience.
