MENGENAI EPISOD INI
Welcome to Glenn Robison’s Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can’t *not* tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78 RPM records of the 1920s and ’30s.
On this evening’s show we’ve got some songs about guys and gals, and we’re going to celebrate the birthday of Joseph Mack.
Enjoy the show!
Here’s the complete playlist:
Segment 1: Eponymous
To get us started, I learned a new word the other day. Eponymous -an adjective meaning of, relating to, or being one for whom something is named or is believed to be named; or being or having a name that is based on or derived from the name of one associated with it. So here are some eponymous songs.
Henderson Stomp – Fletcher Henderson
Merritt Stomp – George E. Lee and His Novelty Singing Orchestra
Hiawatha’s Lullaby – Joe Venuti’s Blue Five / Howard Phillips, v.
Wylie Avenue Blues – Albert “Abbie” Brunies and His Half-Way House Orchestra
Segment 2: Mack Trucking
November 27 marked the birth in 1870 of Joseph Mack. He and his brothers John, Augustus, and William built the Mack bus, which operated in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park for eight years before being converted into a truck. So here in tribute to the Mack brothers, some truckin songs.
Truckin’ – Roy Fox and His Band / Mary Lee, v.
Us on a Bus – Teddy Stauffer and The Original Teddies / Billy Toffel, v.
Trucking on Down – George Scott Wood and His Orchestra / Marjorie Stedeford, v.
Truckin’ – Duke Ellington and His Orchestra / Ivy Anderson, v.
Segment 3: Eponymous Bands
Let’s review. What does eponymous mean? That’s right! Being or having a name that is based on or derived from the name of one associated with it. For example, Waring’s Pennsylvanians. And here they are, with one of my favorite songs.
Gloriana – Waring’s Pennsylvanians / Clare Hanlon, v.
Nightingale Rag Blues – Hitch’s Happy Harmonists
Stockyard Strut – Freddy Keppard’s Jazz Cardinals
Pretty Audrey – Louis Duamine’s Jazzola Eight
Segment 4: Guys & Gals
For no particular reason, here’s a set of songs about guys and gals.
She’s the Sweetheart of Six Other Guys – Harry Reser’s Six Jumping Jacks / Tommy Stacks, v.
Out o’ Town Gal – Paul Whiteman and His Orchestra / Bing Crosby, Harry Barris, Al Rinker, Jack Fulton, v.
A Guy What Takes His Time – Mae West
There’s a Wah Wah Gal in Agua Caliente – Boswell Sisters
