The post Rapidly Rotating Records 78 RPM Show – 24 April 2005 appeared first on Glenn Robison's Rapidly Rotating 78 RPM Records.

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.

Enjoy the show!

Here’s the complete playlist:

Segment 1: Love Me
A couple of weeks ago I received a request from listener Ernie for a song called “Does She Love Me?” As it turns out, the song Ernie was thinking of is actually titled “It’s Too Soon to Know” which was written in 1947 by Deborah Chessler and recorded by Sonny Til and The Orioles. The lyric starts out “Does She Love Me”, which is what created the confusion. That song is outside the focus of this show, but I do have several versions of “Does She Love Me?”.

Do You Love Me? – Colster Dance Orch (Selvin) / Smith Ballew

The post Rapidly Rotating Records 78 RPM Show – 10 April 2005 appeared first on Glenn Robison's Rapidly Rotating 78 RPM Records.

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’re going to lounge around, listen to some charming music, celebrate the birthdays of Pops and Zez Confrey, and do the rhumba.

Enjoy the show!

Here’s the complete playlist:

Segment 1: Loungers
If you live in the Long Beach or Signal Hill area of Southern California and are a subscriber to Charter Cable, then you have the great good fortune of being able to see yours truly on TV! Thanks to longtime faithful listener Ron, I was a guest on a quite eccentric program hosted by Glen Banks called “Uncle Glen’s Lounge Party”, and that program is airing each Saturday in April at 7 PM on Channel 3. So, if you’re in Long Beach, I hope you’ll tune in. The rest of you will just have to wait until Dave or Jay call to have me on their shows. Anyway, in celebration of the “Lounge Party”, here’s a set of rapidly rotating records by some loungers.

I’ve Got a Feeling I’m Falling – Willard Robison and His Levee Loungers
The Jazz Me Blues – Bert Lown and His Loungers
Any Time, Any Day, Anywhere – Chick Bullock and His Levee Loungers/ Chick Bullock, v.

Segment 3: Tuba
I received a very nice e-mail last week from new listener Ray who is retired from 40 years in broadcast television and who described himself as “an old tuba player”. I’ll take that to mean that Ray plays a tuba that is old, and here for listener Ray is a set of tuba songs.

Snookum – Elgar’s Creole Orchestra
Goose Pimples – The Halfway House Dance Orchestra
