    Subject:  Vince Turdo

    My daughter, a dialysis nurse in Kingman, Az, has run across a man named
    Vince Turdo who claims to be an old radio performer on "many network" shows
    in the 30's-40's. He was a radio singer and speaks of appearing on Lux many
    times but I doubt that it was Lux. But perhaps a similar film-variety series
    [removed] Gulf Screen Guild for example. I've not found any mention of him in the
    usual references. The name could be Turado or Trudo. She would love to find
    an example of his radio work to present to him. Feel free to contact off
    line.

    ====================================
    CLASSICS & CURIOS

    "Echoes of Songs and Laughter"

    Episode 26

    Big Band Night with Teenager Benny Goodman
    Our first big band show features Isham Jones, Ted Lewis, and the first
    band Benny Goodman fronted called Benny Goodman's Boys. Benny was 18,
    and among musicians in his band were Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, and Ben
    Pollack. Jones was known for his polished and rich sounds, and Lewis
    early in his career was considered a jazz pioneer. Some of the tunes
    include "A Jazz Holiday," "Dip Your Brush in Sunshine,"Muskrat
    Scramble," "Swingin' Down the Lane," a pre-lyric "Star Dust," and "I'll
    See You in My Dreams." Making a special curio appearance will be the
    "Happiness Boys" with a 1925 recording of "That Certain Party."

    Eddie Hubbard's Big Band Remote Tour
    Here's one of legendary DJ Eddie Hubbard's many great shows: a "Tour" of
    big band radio remotes. We'll hear a portion of Benny Goodman's
    triumphant 1938 classic concert from Carnegie Hall. To make things even
    more special we'll hear a collector segment of a Harry James remote from
    Ocean Park's Casino Gardens. Harry broke his leg playing baseball so
    Tommy Dorsey answered the call and filled in for him on Harry's radio
    broadcast, leading the band on tunes like "Sweet and Lovely." Eddie's
    brief "Tour" of remotes also includes Louis Prima, Artie Shaw, and Chuck
    Foster with such songs as "O, You Beautiful Gal" and "Go Fly a Kite."
    Peggy Lee is an Eddie "extra added attraction," along with the
    Carpenters who close Eddie's show with "Top of the World." We hear
    Eddie's "Tour" just as he did it for his (undated) ABC radio show and
    just as Jerry Haendiges transferred it for us from Eddie's original
    studio tape.

    Subject:  What's the Name of that Song?

    I sent a question about this quiz show; it was not answered, and it didn't
    appear anyplace, so I guess I was wrong in directing it to the Webmaster. I
    hope I have chosen the right place this time. Anyway, I would appreciate any
    information I can obtain about the show, as it was one of my favorites. I ask
    here because I have never been able to find any reference to it despite
    repeated Internet searches. I can't pinpoint when it was broadcast, but it
    had to have been in the early 50s. Finding any reference to the show seems to
    be almost impossible, but I'm going to make an even more difficult request:
    Are there any remaining recordings? If so, where can they be found?

    Sincerely,

    Warren Jones
