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 is warming us up for the new year with some cool 78s and early vinyl to get us in the mood for ringing in 2025, Leslie Douglas sings of Happy Days, Happy Months, Happy Years, while Dean Martin complains about the cold weather, The Clark Sisters offer a Hot Toddy! And, we also open up the mail bag once again for some Hoagy Carmichael and Mario Lorenzi.

In a VCT first, Colin does a musical shout out to his cat! It's a long forgotten Chart Topper from Joy Nichols and Benny Lee. We feature a terrific side from the outfit put together in France in the 30s by Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli, The Quintette du Hot Club de France.
And, entering through The Green Door in 1956 is Jim Lowe. Also, listen up for the wonderful Pickens Sisters from 1934.
