about
A record my grandpa made for Christmas 1945. Includes "All Around the Christmas Tree" by Warnow & Todd; an instrumental medley of "Skip to my lou," "Polly Wolly Doodle," "Baby Bumblebee," and "Jingle Bells" (performer unknown); "White Christmas," by Bing Crosby (from the White Christmas album); and the hippest, coolest big band arrangement of "Santa Claus is Comin' to Town" that I've ever heard. I wish I knew who it was by!

My grandfather was an engineer at Detroit's WJR beginning in 1943. He kept what was considered trash at the time: on-air ... more transcription discs for shows he liked. He also cut a lot of discs for his own use. I've inherited his collection of over 250 discs. If he were alive today, these are the things that would be on his iPod. less
