Episode 2
Barry spins his turntable time machine and remembers the first British DJ Christopher Stone and uncovering the history behind the term disc jockey among other vintage delights.
Through his unique commentary, Barry demonstrates the songs of the past are still just as relevant today. Each track provides fascinating (and sometimes astounding!) snapshots of social history. Highlights of this programme include: Jack Hylton's recording of 'Amy Wonderful Amy' in celebration of aviatrix Amy Johnson's record-breaking flight from Britain to Australia in 1930, clips of the first British DJ Christopher Stone who in 1927 convinced the 成人快手 to let him broadcast a programme of American and American-influenced Jazz records, an early version of the 'My Baby Just Cares for Me' which dates back to the 1920s, Noel Coward's ground-breaking and honest 1932 version of 'Mad About the Boy' which was kept under-wraps by record company executives until quiet recently and The Western Brothers send 成人快手 workforce in the 1930s in the song 'We're Frightfully 成人快手'...
