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 go musically to Mandalay, celebrate Michigan’s birthday, make some returns, play fair and air some differences.
