Long before the invention of "talk radio," music was the heart and
soul of radio programming--whether standing alone, filling in the
time between features, or identifying to widespread audiences the
shows coming on and signing off the air.
Jim Cox's Music Radio encompasses the entire range of musical
programming from the early 1920s to the early 1960s. Jazz, country,
classical, gospel, pop, big band, western, and semi-classical forms
are covered, as are the vocalists, instrumentalists and disc
jockeys who made them available to listeners. Virtually all the
major series and artists are explored in depth, and lesser known
shows and performers are touched on as well. Some of the series
included are The Bing Crosby Show, The Chamber Music Society of
Lower Basin Street, The Fred Waring Show, Grand Ole Opry, The Bell
Telephone Hour, The Cities Service Concerts, Your Hit Parade, The
Kate Smith Show, The Railroad Hour, and The Voice of Firestone.
