4 Remotes From The Victory Parade of Spotlight Bands

This week on the show I will be presenting four radio remotes originally broadcast on the Victory Parade of Spotlight Bands Program. Here is a brief description of the program:

The Coca-Cola Company’s big band legacy and its contribution to the war effort. An outstanding collection of 25 of America’s most popular big bands broadcasting live from military bases and defense plants from coast-to-coast during World War II. Featuring the music of Sammy Kaye, Lionel Hampton, Orrin Tucker, Bobby Sherwood, Jack Teagarden, Leo Reisman, Bob Chester, Alvino Rey, Johnny Long, Tommy Dorsey, Jimmie Lunceford, Johnny ‘Scat’ Davis, Harry James, Shep Fields, Frankie Carle, Gene Krupa, Louis Armstrong, Frankie Masters, Les Brown, Bob Crosby, Sonny Dunham, Eddy Howard, Lawrence Welk, Benny Goodman, Buddy Rich.

The four remotes this week are Les Brown, Bob Chester, Jan Savitt, and Gene Krupa. The sound is good on all but the Savitt broadcast, it is a little muddy. I hope you'll tune in and listen.
