Rapidly Rotating 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.

You’re going to want to take notes in the second segment, and in the last segment, we’ll remind you of the importance of distancing during this Covid-19 pandemic. The show starts off with a set of rapidly rotating records about cry babies!

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!
