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 definite theme this week as we spin the 1924 Victor Male Chorus with a stirring rendition of Drink Drink Drink. In the late 50s there was huge hit for The Champs that still gets played at partyies to this day, but the version Colin is sharing is the top selling big band version in the UK of Tequila. We also feature a fantastic jam session from 1937, and a rocker from Lavern Baker.
The focus, this week is on The Cavern Club in Liverpool when it opened it’s doors as a jazz club in 1957, and the acts who performed there before The Beatles made the place world famous: Kenny Ball, big Bill Broonzy, Terry Lightfoot, The Merseysippi Jazz Band, Ackerman Bilk making his debut, and local skiffle group... The Quarrymen.

While Colin was on holiday in the UK, he walked into a charity shop selling 78rpm records… and he walked out with not only a bargain or two, but also a radio programme! On his shopping list this week: Sid Phillips and his band, Billy May, Vaughn Monroe, an artist Colin had never heard of performing Meet Me On The Corner, and the spectacular line up of The Metronome All-Stars.
