Episode Details

Welcome to Glenn Robison’s Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can’t *not* tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78 RPM records of the 1920s and ’30s.

On this evening’s show we’ll look for some silver linings, sit by the sycamore tree, move from place to place, play some records for no particular reason and listen to this past week in recording history.
