  • RRR 78RPM Show – 29 April 2018

    Welcome to Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can’t *not* tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78RPM records of the 1920s and’30s.

    This is the last chance to take advantage of the special offer from The Syncopated Times. Donate $100 or more to KISL and RRR during the month of April and receive a free, one-year, 12 issue subscription to the national newspaper that serves as the communications hub for the hot jazz, ragtime and swing communities. Just send an email to [email protected] and let me know you’d like to donate, and we’ll get you started right away. April is almost over, so take advantage of this special offer now. On this week’s edition of the show there are no birthday salutes, no historial event references and no commemorations. The segment topics were just sort of chosen at random. No matter. It’s still a great show with some records being played for the first time on the show. Despite having some swell records in the fourth segment, it’s going to be a real stinker! We’re also going to do some salaaming, and at the end, we’ll try to catch our breath. If you enjoy the show, please let us know by leaving a comment on the website or the Facebook page or sending an email to [email protected].  And remember, your requests and topic segments are always welcome. As always, just click on the link below to instantly listen streaming online and/or download the show.

    Welcome to Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can’t *not* tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78RPM records of the 1920s and’30s.

    The first line of the song “Me And My Shadow” starts with “Me and my shadow / strolling down the avenue.” But the lyric never reveals the avenue being strolled down. So we’re going to present some possibilities. And because there are so many famous avenues in New York City, there’s a separate segment for New York avenues. We’ll also celebrate the vernal equinox and the birthdays of Paul Specht and Mort Dixon. There are at least a couple of records making their RRR debut.

    Welcome to Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can’t *not* tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78RPM records of the 1920s and’30s.

    There are literally hundreds of “Nation this day” and “National that Day”, some commemorating worthy causes and event, and some rather frivolous. On this week’s edition of the show, we’re going to celebrate a couple of each. Some of you may still be celebrating St. Patrick’s Day (or haven’t recovered from it!) so we’re going to have some songs for St. Patrick’s Day. There are at least a couple of records making their RRR debut. If you enjoy the show, please let us know by leaving a comment on the website or the Facebook page or sending an email to [email protected].  And remember, your requests and topic segments are always welcome. As always, just click on the link below to instantly listen streaming online and/or download the show.

    Welcome to Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can’t *not* tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78RPM records of the 1920s and’30s.

    Do you know who Ernie Palmquist is? If not, and even if you do, by the end of the show, you’re going to find out more about Ernie Palmquist than you probably ever wanted to know! We’re also going to follow-up on last week’s segment about “needle drops” by playing a set of Edison electrical “Needle Type” lateral records. I forgot to credit Jerry Cooper on last week’s show, so we’ll make up for that error by playing a couple more of Jerry’s records with other bands. You hear a lot about cover ups in the news lately, so we’re going to have some cover ups of our own. But the show will start, for no particular reason, with a set of rapidly rotating records about reasons. Now that’s reasonable, isn’t it? There are at least a couple of records making their RRR debut.

    Welcome to Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can’t *not* tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78RPM records of the 1920s and’30s.

    I hope you like the “One Thing in Common” segments, because we’ve got yet another one this week! The four records in the first segment are wildly divergent, but they all have one thing in common. You can make what will likely be a futile attempt to figure it out while they’re playing, or you can just sit back and relax, enjoy the music and let me tell you the commonality at the end of the set. I suggest the latter! On last week’s show we heard a record by Eddy Thomas, who was sometimes incorrectly credited as Smith Ballew. Eddy Thomas deserves more recognition, so he gets his very own segment on this week’s show. A couple of weeks ago you heard about my friend Dana’s father, the locomotive engineer. This week’s you’ll find out about Dana’s grandfather, who engaged in an rather unusual activity. We’ll also find out the origin of some things and continue the cuddling we started last week. There are at least a couple of records making their RRR debut.
