OTR for a Thursday morning......AFRS Jubilee 9-25-1947 w/ Beryl Davis and Cyril Hanes
Jubilee was a unique series of radio entertainment designed for the guys and gals in the American Armed Forces during World War II. None of the broadcasts were heard over the regular networks in the USA.
Jubilee was produced in Hollywood by the Armed Forces Radio Service (AFRS) and the programs were transcribed on 16" vinylite discs (speed: 33 1/3 rpm) and distributed to various radio stations all over the world.
Here's a broadcast from McCormick General Hospital in Pasadena, CA.....September 25, 1947, featuring the vocals of Beryl Davis, Earl Spencer and Orch., The Howard McGee Sextet, Cyril Hanes, Joe Alexander w/ the Dave Cavanaugh Quintet, and Gene Norman as MC...... (this will lead in to a nice little Beryl Davis list :)
You'll like this one....a nice little OTR piece bridging that era between big band, and modern jazz
Enjoy!

The Chicagoan..........some of the covers
The Chicagoan was an American magazine modeled after the New Yorker published from June 1926 until April 1935. Focusing on the cultural life of the city of Chicago, each issue of the Chicagoan contained art, music, and drama reviews, profiles of personalities and institutions, commentaries on the local scene, and editorials, along with cartoons and original art.
In an early issue, the Chicagoan's editors claimed to represent "a cultural, civilized and vibrant" city "which needs make no obeisance to Park Avenue, Mayfair, or the Champs Elysees." Despite its lofty aims, the stalwart assertions of publisher Martin J. Quigley (who once wrote that "Whatever Chicago was and was to be, the Chicagoan must be and become"), and a circulation that sometimes rose above 20,000, the magazine was largely forgotten after its last issue.
Only two substantial collections remain, one at the University of Chicago's Regenstein Library and the other at the New York Public Library. Cultural historian Neil Harris has recently written a book on the subject, The Chicagoan: A Lost History of the Jazz Age (the University of Chicago Press).
