The Rich Musical Past
Featuring the remarkable pianist, composer and vocalist Bob Dorough, the ‘father of exotica’ Martin Denny, and the ‘Chairman of the Board’ Frank Sinatra.
We also hear upbeat sounds from pre-war Austria, music from Fellini’s Amarcord, the woman who followed the Tour de France for years from a support car, and Art Blakey with The Jazz Messengers.
And a lot more music from times gone by.
