主持人:Colin Aitchison
Music aficionado and band leader Colin Aitchison presents the musicians who were the huge, million-selling recording stars of an often forgotten era.
Before Bruno Mars, there was Bing Crosby, before the likes of Adele, there was Billie Holiday ... and before Justin Bieber ... well, where to start!?!
There’s some terrific music and stories from the ‘20s, ‘30s, ‘40s and ‘50s, plus a few laughs!
Every Sunday, 8.30am-9am
Among the goodies, this week, Colin tells us about the songwriters of a 1950s tune that are, now, more of a paper trail of where the money went, rather than a true indication of the people who actually wrote the song! We get all kilted up for the Eric Delaney band who go a roamin’ in 1956 on early vinyl still running at 78rpm. And, there's a 1936 recording featuring a wonderful, young, new singer… Vera Lynn.
