"Broadway Rhythm" April 4, 2008

(Week 117)

Tonight's RADIOLA! is all about Broadway--and not just the thoroughfare, but the much-loved dime-store label as well. (Thanks to Leah Bezin of the West End Jazz Band) for the suggestion. Tune in at 8 PM Eastern to WHCL-88.7 FM (with streaming here). A special presentation of "Hammond Bacon" featuring Den Otis (sp?) will follow RADIOLA! at 10. "Broadway Rhythm" will be uploaded to my Live 365 station this weekend.

Andy.....

Once again, Sir...a GREAT show! I adore The Savoy Orpheans, and you cannot go wrong with multiple doses of The Boswell Sisters {God, they were HOT!}.

Thank God for labels like Jazz Oracle & The late, lamented ASV/Living Era...

I see you've dug into the Santa Barbara cylinder Collection...when I found it, I discovered tons of fun stuff.

Thanks again for bringing back parts of a sadly neglected past!

Thanks! It felt like a good show. I just uploaded it to Live365.

'Hammond Bacon' frightens me. ;-)

Andy said...

It unsettles me a bit, too.

You want to stay out of putter range with Des.
