Swing, jazz and dance from live 1920s to '60s radio broadcasts. Today's show features part of a rare broadcast by the Gay Claridge Orchestra from the Chez Paree in Chicago in 1944 featuring jazz's first woman electric guitarist, Mary Osbourne. Mary bought her first electric guitar the day after she heard Charlie Christian at a gig in Bismarck ND. By 1968 she founded the Osborne Guitar Company, which later became the Osborne Sound Laboratories, a manufacturer of amplifiers and public-address systems. Presented by Greg Poppleton. Enjoy!
