Designed to lift the spirit on a cold winter night. James P. Johnson, Phebel Wright, Red Allen, The Hokum Trio, Jesters, Django, Cherry Smash, Jack Teagarden, The Nerves, assorted genii from the American South … alternate takes, collectors’ rubies, bands you never heard of, and unknown gold. True delights. 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. Broadcast live from the Hudson studio.
