- Radiola #0002 - Lucky Dip
- From
- Andy Senior
The music of the 1920s and 1930s has a lightness and a vitality totally lacking in other musical realms. Also, it could be sophisticated, smart, and funny. It is not the over-processed, demographically-targeted pop of later years. It was all in one take, all on one mike, spontaneous, and totally in the moment. Hence it is still fresh, joyous, and new, even today.
This RADIOLA! features sound recordings taken from the original source documents (i.e., 78 RPM records), including rare recordings of pianist C. Luckeyth Roberts playing in his prime as an accompanist to Eddie Hunter. These recordings have been carefully restored to remove excess noise.
