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 welcomes back Jens-Uwe Volmecke to share more records from his amazing personal collection of vintage 78s. This time round he features great British dance bands recorded in Germany, with some rare, swinging sides from Jack Hylton, Al Bowlly, Billy Bartholomew, and Henry Hall. Plus, hear about an amazing connection that brought two old friends together by both listening to the same Sunday morning radio show in Hong Kong.

Have you ever heard of Madame Tussaud's Dance Orchestra? Not a waxwork in sight, but a top flight, chart topping British band of the 1930s.
That's just one of a handful of curio's that Colin is digging up this Sunday morning. There's also the dizzy fingers of Zez Confrey from 1927, the original arrangement of the classic song ‘Fever’, The Mills Brothers, and the wild antics of the one and only Nervous Norvus!
