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!

‘Mon Homme” was a big 1920 tune in France, composed by Maurice Yvain, but we focus this morning on the English hit from 1921, a mighty recording by Ziegfeld Follies singer Fanny Brice. We feature a track, once again, from a modern line up playing vintage arrangements on vintage instruments: The Bratislava Hot Serenaders. Colin also digs up two big selling records of 1958 from Perry Como, as well as Billy Ternant & his orchestra, plus a country AND western swinger from Don Gibson in 1958.

This week, as clear as a bell, we've a recording from 1927 featuring a star of The Folies Bergère, with quite the story to tell. We have a summertime classic on a huge 12inch 78rpm disc from Artie Shaw and an all star band, a 1938 recording from the artist who had her name shortened by the record company to fit on the label, and a big theme from a Paul Newman/Orson Welles movie in 1958 - 'The Long Hot Summer'.
