Presenter:Colin Aitchison
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 Colin 'Dr. Jazz' Aitchison includes a real fun session of a swing band put together by Victor Sylvestor for the recording of ‘Crazy Rhythm’. The classic memory making juke box hits come from Dean Martin and The Coasters, with things being rounded off by Jelly Roll Morton & His Hot Peppers from 1926. Plus, there's Frankie Lane and Leslie Hutch Hutchinson.
