Hosted by Michael Wilde.

Music from the golden age, mixed and mashed with the lush arrangements, silkier crooning, and quality sound of the war and postwar era. Hanshaw, Willard Robison, Joe Venuti’s Blue Four, Waller, Calloway, Mills Brothers, Delmores, Teddy Wilson, Ramona, Goodman, Hawkins, Parker, Woody Herman, Jimmie Lunceford, Blue Sky Boys … all from a time when shellac was king and to play on the record you had to have swing. Glittering, sultry, Moderne, complex. Marvels.
