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.

Do you know who this fellow is?  He’s Wendell Hall, known as “The Red-Headed Music Maker” and his is one of four birthdays we’ll be celebrating on this week’s edition of Rapidly Rotating Records. The others are Grace Hayes, Nat Star and Irving Bibo. And in the third segment of the show, we’ll have a couple of funny little tunes.  There’s lots of great music and interesting information, so set aside an hour with your favorite beverage and be magically transported back to a different–and we think better–musical era. 

ENJOY THE SHOW!
