BE! #2

For the second entry, I wanted to post my 1st ever Radio Show I uploaded on Mixcloud entitled: "Alternation in Vocals: Male-Female". It is 31 minutes and 28 seconds in length. I featured mostly some of my favorite Ballads in this pilot episode. For everyone's useful information I will be indicating the Playlist in the Transcription:

"It's a fine afternoon and I always feel like listening to some good Music. Here are some of my favorite tunes I want to post as a playlist idea for anyone who is in the same mood as me right now.

I'd like to start off with something happy. It's a tune recorded by Boyd Raeburn & His Orchestra in 1946. Vocal play by David Allyn. Composition and Arrangement by George Handy. 

And now all you need to do is just Sit back, relax. Grab a coffee or probably some wine. Enjoy the show.

'I Don't Care Who Knows It' plays..

Moving on now with my radio proper program called: 

Alternation in Vocals: Male-Female-Male-Female

Here is Ann Richards with the Stan Kenton Orchestra, singing 'Speak Low'

Here is a beautiful melody, sung by an original member of the Four Freshmen. He plays trumpet and sings mainly Baritone. This is Hal Kratzsch with 'Stella By Starlight' 

A 1936 song composed by Richard Rodgers, with lyrics by  Lorenz Hart. Here is June Christy with 'There's A Small Hotel'

A Hi-fidelity 1950's recording of a 1941 Standard written by Henry Nemo. A personal favorite of the next male singer I'm going to feature. Beautiful arrangement by Pete Rugolo, This is Ken Errair!

'Don't Take Your Love From Me' plays..

Bobby Troup wrote many great Standards such as of course, 'Route 66' recorded by a number of artists. And now here is Bobby Troup's wife singing 'The Good Life'

A rare track now which was released after the death of this next male singer. He played guitar in this recording. His name is Don Barbour.

'Where Are You' plays..

As an intermission breather, I'd like to feature now a personal recording of mine from November, last year. Music by Henry Mancini: 'Moon River'

Going back now to the professional recordings. Here is the Queen of Swing Ella Fitzgerald with a Cole Porter composition, 'What Is This Thing Called Love'

And that is all folks! Thank you for listening to my program, The Arranger's Corner. I'll see you in the future on my next Radio Mix. This is Bubblebasedboy saying.. 

'Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye' plays.. "
