Starting off a bitterly cold morning by transferring a newly-discovered recording of Game 7 of the 1955 World Series, the only Series the Brooklyn Dodgers would ever win. Two years later, they ceased to exist -- perhaps the worst case of "Be Careful What You Wish For" ever.

Billy Hays and his Orchestra -- Just In Time (1929)
(vocal by Sam Browne)
Victor 40103 (American pressing)

To me this fine British dance band is somewhat reminiscent of Horace Heidt from the same period particularly with its drum and trumpet arrangement.

Lyrics
The birds wouldn't sing,
The sun wouldn't shine
But you came along
Just in time

All day I was blue
At night I would pine
But you came along
Just in time

For like a little bluebird
You flew through my door
And brought the joy
That I've been waiting for

And singing a song,
The whole world's in rhyme
Cause you came along
Just in time.

Lud Gluskin's classy band in 3 great (and rare) French Pathé sides from 1932-'33:
Music Hath Charms / The Night When Love Was Born (in French) / Fit as a Fiddle (in English)

Radio to figure out which of the city council candidates is against the $65 dump sticker by --

It's September 23, 1938 and WOR presents a remote from Flushing Meadow, Queens, as officials of the New York Worlds Fair and the Westinghouse Manufacturing and Electric Company preside over the burial of the Westinghouse Time Capsule, a metal torpedo containing a huge assortment of artifacts of mid-1930s everyday life, for the edification of whatever civilization still exists in the year 6939. I'm sure the giant talking cockroaches will enjoy the Artie Shaw records and the Donald Duck sippy cup.

Lo-fi ambient artist, The Caretaker, who samples old 1902s-30s 78rpm records and makes atmospheric, ambient (sometimes spooky) music...
