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 were gonna celebrate “home sweet home” and celebrate an anniversary.

Enjoy the show!

Here’s the complete playlist:

Segment 1: Happy Anniversary
That anniversary is none other than the fifth anniversary of this very show, which debuted right here on KISL on July 23, 2000, and we’ve been here ever since. So to commemorate our fifth anniversary, we’re going to play “five” songs.

Five Step – Paul Whiteman AHO / The Rhythm Boys

Sweet Little You – Al Turks Princess Orch

Segment 4: Home Again
We’re commemorating the debut of the radio serial drama “Home Sweet Home”. We had a set of “home” songs, and a set of “sweet” songs, so it makes sense that we’d have another set of “Home” songs.

Home – Ruth Etting
I Feel at home with you – George Olsen and His Music

Segment 5: Five More
Here finish up this evening’s fifth anniversary show is another set of “five” songs.
