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!

This week on VCT we go 'Riding On A Rainbow' with Maurice Winnick and a DECCA recording from 1934. The often forgotten vocalist Ann Richards is shooting high from her 1958 capitol album of the same name. Pioneering cornet master, Joseph Nathan Oliver, brings us a legendary blues recording originally brought to fame by Satchmo. Then, from 'King' Oliver to the 'king of soul', with our 50s pop tune of the day, brought to you by one of the most influential soul artists of all time.
