 Rapidly Rotating Records 78RPM Logo

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 week it’s yet another “One Thing In Common” edition of Rapidly Rotating Records. We’ve got 15 great records, which seemingly have nothing whatsoever to do with each other, but actually have one thing in common. You can see the playlist below, but don’t waste any energy trying to figure it out. Just sit back, relax and enjoy the music. I’ll let you know at the end of the show what the common thread it. Per usual, 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.

    What happened? Your show suddenly phased into some rock.
    Hope you archive it so I can get it later this week.

      Hi, Alex. Thanks for your note. The November 12 show has been posted to the website and you should be able to listen streaming online. Can you give me some more details about what happened on the air on Sunday evening? At what point did the show phase out?

    Glenn,
    Thanks for your reply. Your prog. phased out during
    the song “You Call It Madness.” And then it was rock
    music. As the program is now posted I’ll be able
    to hear all of it. Thanks for your wonderful selections
    Alex

    Glenn,
    I misled you…I was looking at the wrong listing.
    I lost the program with the song “Always…” by Geo.Olsen.
    Thanks,
    Alex
