Shellac Stack No. 74

Shellac Stack No. 74 seeks the blue skies behind the clouds. We sample some fine dance band selections by the Jack Shilkret and Bob Haring Orchestras, savor some delightful vocals by Peggy Lee, Margaret Whiting, and Bessie Smith, and listen to jazz saxophonists Illinois Jacquet (I say “Jackay,” you say “Jacket” — “Toe-may-toe,” “Toe-mah-toe”) and Coleman Hawkins. “Oh Baby, Look Out!”
