Description

Up and at ’em whippersnappers!
Start your day (or end it, you night owls) with classic recordings from the 1920’s & 30’s:
Country Blues, String Bands, Traditional and Hayseed Jazz, Rollickin’ Breakdowns, Novelty Instrumentals, Piano Blues, Rags & Stomps, Jug Bands, Hokum Blues & even the occasional International gem of traditional music captured in those dusty grooves!
Set yer alarm clocks & don’t hit Snooze… 90 minutes goes by lickety split at 78 rpm!

Why thank you young man! My mind’s doorway is always open except when it gets blown shut, but no need to knock, just “Walk Right In”, like Gus Cannon said…

Thanks Whippersnapper Pete! A hearty “Welcome Back!” to you as well. (And it’s only taken me 9 months to figure out how to reply… it’s a Christmas Miracle!)
