Today’s show features a mixture of recordings from the mid 1930s to the late 1950s. We listen to some fine voices: Frank Sinatra, Anita O’Day, Vic Damone, Buddy Clark and Dinah Washington. Among our smaller jazz groups we hear from Muggsy Spanier and Hot Lips Page, and we have several visitors from the UK: Al Bowlly, Carroll Gibbons and George Melachrino. Enjoy the lovely music!!
