The post Rapidly Rotating Records 78 RPM Show – 20 March 2011 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 gonna have some pie, do some crying, go home, show off some dimples, celebrate the birthdays of Peter DeRose, Joseph Meyer and others, and say farewell. WHAT!! Don’t worry, we’re not going anywhere, just playing some “farewell” songs.

Enjoy the show!

March 14 is “Pi Day”, the Greek letter π associated with the mathematical value 3.1415926, which is why Pi day is celebrated on 3/14. Unfortunately, there aren’t any vintage songs about Pi, but we’re gonna have our own celebration of pie.
