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
Lots of excuses to roll back the carpet and boogie this Sunday morning. Tony Aless is at the piano with a swinging Teddy Powell 1941 release, a song still popular, apparently, with partner dancers… in Finland! Fact. Our all acoustic rocker this week comes from 1925, featuring Clarence Williams and the blue five, but listen out for Louis Armstrong and Sidney Bechet battling out the solos. On the country side of things, Chet Atkinson is producing a sad one for‘Gentleman Jim’ in 1959. Plus, lots more as we explore the million sellers of yesteryear.
