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? You’ll find out all about him and hear several of his records and compositions in the first segment of this week’s edition of Rapidly Rotating Records. In researching him I found out about another artist and you’ll find out all about that person in the third segment of the show. We’ll also celebrate the birthdays of Billy Mayerl and Jerry Herst and in the final segment of the show we’ll go yachting.  There’s lots of great music and interesting information so set aside an hour with your favorite beverage and get magically transported back to a different 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!
