100th Birthday Salute Ray Anthony Part 2

January 20th, 1922 is the birthday of bandleader Ray Anthony. I am going to continue our birthday celebration on today's show. The first half of the program has some assorted cuts including the first solo on record that Ray recorded with the Glenn Miller orchestra. Then for the second half I'll be playing some songs that Ray and his band recorded for a 1953 summer television show. These feature vocalists Helen O'Connell and Bob Eberle. There is some great songs in this set so I hope you enjoy Part two of our Ray Anthony birthday salute.

Om Podcasten

Big Band Bash is a show presenting the music, musicians, and era of the great Big Bands. Each show highlights a different aspect of the big bands, whether it be a show about a certain band or bandleader or a subject of the big bands anywhere from the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. I hope to get your feet tapping with this great music.
