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.

On this evening’s show, we’ll celebrate spring, play some “mighty” songs, play some “duplicates” and have some fun with composers names.

Enjoy the show!

Here’s the complete playlist:

Segment 1: Mighty
There’s a great reason for this Mighty find segment – but you’ll have to press that play button to hear it.

Mighty Blue – Abe Lyman’s California Orchestra / Charles Kaley, v.
I’m A Mighty Tight Woman – Sippie Wallace
Mighty River – Chick Bullock
Mighty Lak’ A Rose – Kay Kyser AHO / Ginny Sims, v.

Segment 2: Interesting Names
This segment features songs by composers with really interesting names.

Smiles and Chuckles – A Jazz Rag – Six Brown Brothers
Tonight’s my night with baby – Waring’s Pennsylvanians / Tom Waring, v.
Precious – Paul Ash AHO / Paul Ash, v.

Segment 3: Springtime

Springtime Rag – Vic Meyers AHO
When You’ve Got A Little Springtime In Your Heart – Ray Noble AHO / Al Bowlly, v.
Springtime In The Rockies – Vincent Lopez Orchestra / Scrappy Lambert, v.

Segment 4: Confusion
I was thinking about different songs with identical titles, and coincidentally, listener Andrew sent an email this week requesting a song called “Loving You”, specifically, the 1930 Yellen and Shapiro song, and NOT the 1928 “Loving You”, written by Redmond Farrar. Well, I’m actually going to play both of those songs in this segment called “Confusion”

Loving You – Ben Selvin AHO / Smith Ballew, v.
Loving You – Adrian Schubert’s Dance Orchestra (Cr. Al Alberts AHO) / Jack Kaufman, v.
Go Home And Tell Your Mother – Six Jumping Jacks / Tom Stacks, v.
Go Home And Tell Your Mother – Don Voorhees AHO / Scrappy Lambert, v,

Segment 5: Spring

Something Came And Got Me In The Spring – Harry Leader Band
Spring Fever – Rube Bloom
Chimes Of Spring – Bob Haring AHO / Smith Ballew, v.
