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 lady is?  She was born Lizzie Douglas but at her first recording session for Columbia Records, she was given a new name by a Columbia A&R (Artist and Repertoire) man. Find out her professional name and all about her as we celebrate her natal anniversary in the first segment of this week’s edition of Rapidly Rotating Records.  We’ll also celebrate Jim Jackson’s birthday, have a two-for-one vocabulary lesson, play with some toys talk men’s and women’s fashion. There lots of great music and interesting information, so set aside an hour with your favorite beverage and be taken magically back to a different (and better!) musical era. 

I hope you are all safe and healthy and doing as well as you can be given the current world situation and stay-at-home orders and that this hour of music gives you a bit of diversion and entertainment. Thanks for listening and best wishes!
