Rapidly Rotating Records

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 “the father of stride piano” James P. Johnson and his is one of three birthdays we’ll be celebrating on this week’s edition of Rapidly Rotating Records. The other two are Irving Aaronson and Lonnie Johnson. We’ll have a “climbing” segment and in a take-off of our “One Thing in Common” bit, we’ll have a “Nothing in Common” segment! There’s lots of great music and interesting information so set aside an hour with your favorite beverage and prepare to be transported back to a different–and we think better–musical era. Just click the link above to listen streaming online and/or download for listening at your convenience. THANKS FOR LISTENING! ENJOY THE SHOW! Here’s the complete playlist: Segment 1: Lonn
