Mostly Singles: Duets, Old 78s, New Zealand (Audio)

Apr 27, 2021

A culmination and bringing together of host Michael Wilde's three great loves. Annette Hanshaw, Chris Knox, Carl Kress and George Barnes, Joe Venuti and Eddie Lang, David Kilgour — masters all. A cornucopia of happy, sad, sweet, whisperin’, smokin’, and a lot of OKeh.

Claverack resident Michael Wilde presents Mostly Singles, selections from an extensive collection of 45 rpm vinyl — music from the 1950s, 60s, 70s, and early 80s, mixed with some 78 rpm selections from American popular song and field recordings from the Library of Congress and folklore archives.
