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
A big number this week featuring a crazy all star line up, The Metronome All Stars, featuring the winners of Metronome magazine’s polls of the year 1946. By way of a slight contrast, we have a song from one of the biggest classical vocalists of the time, Richard Tauber. Also listen up for The Piccadilly Revels Band, Jimmie Rogers (with a little Hong Kong connection) And... the ‘Scatterbrain’ is brought to you by Arthur Young.

In this week’s set we feature the man who was a pivotal figure in the British Invasion because of his influence in the US in the late 1950s, and it’s a BIG song for a Sunday morning... your neighbours will love you for it. A recording from 1940 brings us the pretty new and cool sound of the Hammond organ from the man who probably made it most famous in jazz. And, especially for Mother's Day, a song sung by George Jessel from the film 'Lucky Boy' in 1929, tugging at the heartstrings.
