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.

Now most of the bands and orchestras that we play on this show have decidedly unimaginative names, generally, the leader’s name, and His Orchestra or and His Band. For example, Roger Wolfe Kahn and His Orchestra, Jack Hylton and His Orchestra. Fine bands. Dull names. So, for this edition of the show, I’ve gone through to try to find records made by bands with more creative or unusual names.

Enjoy the show!

Here’s the complete playlist:

Segment 1: Making Vintage Melody’s

Let Me Sing and I’m Happy – Manhattan Melody Makers / Sam Browne
Futuristic Rhythm – The Whoopee Makers (Cr. Mills Musical Clowns)/ Mildred Roselle

This segment of the show features three more British bands

Whistling in the Dark – The Rhythmic Troubadors / Leslie Holmes
Ridin’ Around in the Rain – J. Predergast & The Rialtonians
The King’s Horses – Harry Hudson’s Melody Men/ John Thorne & Chorus

Segment 3: Not So Ordinary
Continuing this out of the ordinary band name edition of Rapidly Rotating Records.

Waffle Man’s Call – Johnny Bayersdorffer a Jazzola Novely
Get Happy – Red Nichols and His Five Pennies as The Captivators / Scrappy Lambert, v.
Ring Around the Moon – Cliff Jackson and His Crazy Kats

Segment 4: Toe Tapping Titles

Homesick – Musical Bell Hops (Yerkes Bell Hops)
Hello, Bluebird – Cliquot Club Eskimos/ Tom Stacks
Tight Like That – Zack Whyte ah Chocolate Beau Brummels

Segment 5: Winter Stomping

Copenhagen Stomp – Boyd Senter ah Senterpedes
Winter Will Come – Capt. Plunkett’s Overseas Orch
Wipe ‘em Off – Seven Gallon Jug Band

Segment 6: Sail The Seas
We have time for at least one more. We just heard from Capt. Plunkett’s Overseas Orchestra, so it’s fitting that we hear from Earl Gresh and His Gangplank Orchestra.

Cross Street Swing – The Original Yellow Jackets
Help! – Earl Gresh and his Gangplank Orchestra

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.

Although listeners to this show might not believe it, I’m generally known as a pauciloquent person. Pauciloquent is a rare, archaic word meaning “uttering few words, or speaking briefly”. So, this evening’s show features rapidly rotating records of few words, at least in their titles.
