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!

Packing the show this week, a stylish, top variety double act at their pianos, a belting, big baritone Canadian, and some extra do-wop baritone from the States. We have some Kansas City blues…with a mystery alto sax player, the winner of the downbeat readers poll for best female singer of 1949, and Colin tells the tale of the bird.

Check out couple of big, big tunes this week, that you might usually associate with other artists. The furthest back we travel is to 1929, with Paul Gibbons at the new electric microphone, Ford Leary from 1937, and the much more familiar Everlys from 1957, at the true start of their career. There's also Connie Russell, Glenn Miller, and Bunny Berigan. Plus, we've got the song with two titles from The Music Man.
