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 )
This week's show was recorded on Friday the 4th of July in front of a live audience at New Town Plaza in Sha Tin. It’s part of a series of RTHK POP UP shows celebrating the world of vinyl and shellac recordings, plus, this week, there's live music from The VCT Syncopators, with Colin Aitchison on trumpet... and wind-up record player! There's plenty of music from the roaring 20s through to the 1950s, both on portable gramophone and live from the band.

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.
