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.

 The entire playlist for this evening’s show is about all things ophthalmic. Why? Well, I’m fortunate to have had the same great optometrist taking care of my vision for about the past 35 years. It’s a very good thing when you can have a long term relationship like that with a top-notch, caring health care provider.  I’ve done a segment or two over the years about eyes, but good eyesight is so important, I thought why stop there? So, for Dr. Rossi and his very capable and caring staff, past and present, here’s a whole show of rapidly rotating records about eyes, vision, glasses, sight and so on.

Enjoy the show!

Here’s the complete playlist:

Segment 1: Eyes 1

Be Careful With Those Eyes – Karl Radlach AHO (Bernie Cummins) / Band, v.

Segment 2: Glasses

You Don’t Need Glasses – Gus Arnheim and His Coconut Grove Ambassadors

Segment 3: Cross-Eyed

I’ve Got A Cross-Eyed Papa – Sophie Tucker

I Idolize My Baby’s Eyes – The Captivators (Red Nichols) / Tony Sacco, v.

Segment 5: Vision

Vision Of Salome – Isham Jones AHO
