RADIO & THE GREAT AMERICAN SONGBOOK
Those
Were the Days host/producer Steve
Darnall talks about how radio helped to create the “Great American
Songbook” by offering songs and singers an unprecedented opportunity to present
their songs to a national audience. You’ll hear from some of the 20th century’s
leading songwriters as they were heard on radio…including words and music from
Johnny Mercer, Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, and a rare 1934 performance from
George Gershwin.
