註釋Long before the invention of talk radio, music was filling the pores of the medium's programming - often standing alone by itself, yet simultaneously seeping in between features, filling background din and identifying to widespread audiences the shows coming on and exiting the ether. This work encompasses the entire range of musical programming from the early 1920s to the early 1960s. Jazz, country, classical, religious, pop, big band, western, and semi-classical forms are explored as are the vocalists, instrumentalists and disc jockeys who made them available to listeners. Virtually all the major series and artists are explored in depth alongside hundreds of references to the lesser varieties. Some of the shows included are The Bing Crosby Show, The Chamber Music Society of Lower Basin Street, The Fred Waring Show, Grand Ole Opry, The Bell Telephone Hour, The Cities Service Concerts, Your Hit Parade, The Kate Smith Show, The Railroad Hour, and The Voice of Firestone. An appendix is also included describing the vocal ranges of the feminine and masculine voices from soprano to basso profundo.
