Over the past weekend I digitized about two dozen of the 78's that were newly added to my collection. Most of them came out sounding great. A couple of them were a little rough, but we're all used to some scratches and pops, right?
Look for songs by Glenn Miller, Les Brown, Benny Goodman, Vaughn Monroe and Tex Beneke. These will be released over the course of the next week on the YouTube Channel. Oh, and please don't forget to subscribe to the channel as well. I'm trying to reach 1000 subscribers by the end of the year. Just a silly personal goal I set for myself. :) Here's a direct link to the channel: Swing City Radio YouTube Channel
In this post I included a song called "Oklahoma City" by Tex Beneke. It was released on the RCA Victor label back in 1947. Tex sings about Oklahoma City, but it sounds more like he misses "making a bid for that freckled-face kid from Kalamazoo".
Enjoy!
