A "Cherry" Edition of RRR # 1,364 September 6, 2026

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 week's show, we’ll go to dreamland, we’ll present you with some take-aways, have not-birthday segments for John E. Guernsey and Harry Geise and pay a musical visit to the cherry trees in Washington, D.C.

There’s lots of great music and interesting information so set aside an hour with your favorite beverage and prepare to be transported back to a different–and we think better–musical era.
