The post Rapidly Rotating Records 78 RPM Show – 30 November 2003 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’ll have not one but two segments of “this week in recording history”, we’ll celebrate the beginning of life, and the birthday of Hoagy Carmichael, and have some songs of thanks.

Enjoy the show!

Here’s the complete playlist:

Segment 1: This Week in Recording History
This week we’re going to start off with our semi-regular portion of the show where we play rapidly rotating records having had a birthday this past week.

Five Foot two Eyes of Blue – Art Landry AHO/Denny “Dinty” Curtis (November 17, 1925)
I Wanna Be Loved By You – Annette Hanshaw as “Dot Dare” (November 22, 1928)
Lovable and Sweet – Rhythmic Eight /Maurice Elwin (November 15, 1929)
Poison – Harry Dial’s Bluesicians (November 19, 1930)

He’s the Life of the Party – Joe Haymes AHO/Joe Haymes, v.
When Life Seems so Blue – Bennie Moten’s Kansas City Orchestra

Segment 5: Thanksgiving
This coming Thursday is Thanksgiving Day here in the US. Thanksgiving celebrations and harvest festivals have been held since ancient times. What we have come to know as the “first Thanksgiving”, the famous 1621 Pilgrim event, wasn’t the first occurrence of the modern American holiday, but was a traditional secular English harvest celebration. I’m thankful for the opportunity to bring you some great music from the 1920s and 30s, and I’m gonna do just that.

Thank Your Father – The Knickerbockers / Smith Ballew
Thanks a Million – Mound City Blue Blowers
Thanks for the Buggy Ride – Percival Mackey and His Band
