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 going to be running hot and cold, we’re going to celebrate the month of May, and we have a whole segment of the show dedicated to requests.

Enjoy the show!

Here’s the complete playlist:

Segment 1: Ideas
For this first segment of the show, I’ll play some songs about “ideas”!

Charlie’s Idea – Paul Howard’s Quality Serenaders

Segment 2: Hot & Cold

Out in the Cold Again – Roy Fox
I Woke Up Cold in Hand – Charles Creath’s Jazz-O-Maniacs
