Even though I was not born until 1952, I always loved that kind of music. I know the words to this one. My half-sister whose mama passed away at age 6, was 3 then.
I can remember Johnny Mercer singing this song. I was nine years old and Johnny Mercer was a great songwriter and singer. He was one of the very few southern writers on "Tin Pan Alley." Songs were much more romantic then.🥰
I love old movies, too. I don't need guns blazing, unless it is Matt Dillon and Chester.
Or the Rifleman.😅
This program came on 5 months before I was born. I'm sure that my grandparents and parents were listening to the radio at that time.
About a year before my husband was born. But, me, six years before. But, it's great music. How do you feel about Carmen Cava- what's his name?
In February 16, 1946--I would have been 5 months old and a resident of St. Vincent's Orphanage on LaSalle Street, Chicago....
So glad that you made it out Steven. Hope that everything worked out for the better.
I have a few of these programs 1935, 1938 with Buddy Clark and some from the 40's
Do you happen to have any more recordings of Your Hit Parade from 1946?
Nice! I love OTR
Originally aired at the time on Saturdays at 9pm(et) over CBS, for Lucky Strike {L.A. "Speed" Riggs, the famous tobacco auctioneer: "[Chant] Sold, to American [Tobacco]!"}. However, Armed Forces rebroadcasts eliminated all sponsor references and commercials. The music and singers are still good [Johnny Mercer, Joan Edwards, The Hit Paraders, Mark Warnow and the (Lucky Strike) Orchestra].
I was 4 !
Me too.
They skipped 1100 on the dial
Cigarettes will NEVER sponsor a show again.
We hope!
How about beer which kills hundreds of people a day?
No, you're right about that one.
what is the top band on that radio? Short wave?
+inkey2 550 to 1600 kilohertz-----The dial is misleading because the numbers flip up and down on the dial but it actually is only ONE band. Today the AM (AMPLITUDE MODULATION) band has been extended to 1700 kilohertz. In the "old days" kilohertz (khz) was referred to as kilocycles (kc) but that was (is) technically incorrect because kc was really referring kilocycles per second. Today the term "hertz" stands "cycles per second."
+Roland Petit OHHH yeah, now I get it.......that is an eccentric way to design the dial.....staggering the numbers up and down. Actually as these old radios go......it is pretty plain and simple looking
