For the show today I have brought out a show I produced several years ago. I ran out of time this week but will have a new show for next week. This week's show is a little different from the type of show I usually do. I prefer the swing bands but I realize that lots of people enjoy bands other than the ones I like. So today we'll be hearing some music from the Ol' Professor, Kay Kyser. Kay led a very popular band and was featured on the radio and in the movies. Another band that was quite different was Sammy Kaye's outfit. He led a band that was called a sweet band. He had several hits during the swing era and he made a large number of records for Vocalion Records, RCA Victor, Columbia Records, Bell Records, and the American Decca record label. He was also a hit on radio. I hope you enjoy this encore presentation of Big Band Bash.
