This one's for you,, Alex....OTR International Sweethearts of Rhythm 1945 AFRS Jubilee broadcast...
Here's a great OTR for this afternoon.........The International Sweethearts of Rhythm....The Armed Forces radio network...."Jubilee"....a broadcast from 1945. Good stuff!!
Oh boy! Thanks so much for this. I just heard about these folks on NPR yesterday for the first time, and was desperate to hear more. What a hot band they were.
:) Geez! I don't much more than that b'cast....just a few more recordings, not even enough for a good list! I could combine what I have with some other 'era' girl big bands, maybe?
Thank you, barberella! Made my evening! Happily listening now. :)
