Rapidly Rotating Records 78 RPM Show – March 6, 2022

Piyut Pivnee (The Rooster's Crow - Ukrainian Chorus Dumka

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.

The record above was supposed to be played on last week’s All-Ukraine show, but we ran out of time, so it will wrap up this week’s show. We’ll start off the show by celebrating Nancy Green’s birthday. We’ll hear some tunes by Frank Gillen and sink to the bottom of the sea! In the fourth segment, we’ll hear some songs about helianthis (sunflowers!)  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 thing better–musical era. Just click on the player above to listen streaming online and/or download for listening at your convenience.

ENJOY THE SHOW!
