The Railroad Hour, Volume 1
Hop on the star-studded show train as Radio Archives brings you singing star Gordon MacRae in “The Railroad Hour”, a lush and tuneful series of musical programs offering vest-pocket versions of musical comedies and operettas - everything from the romantic melodies of Victor Herbert and Sigmund Romberg right through to the musical comedies of Cole Porter, George Gershwin, and Irving Berlin - as well as familiar collections of popular melodies.
In these warm and stylish half-hours, MacRae is joined by a host of leading ladies, including Lucille Norman, Dorothy Kirsten, and Jane Powell, as well as the Norman Luboff Choir, Carmen Dragon and the Railroad Hour Orchestra, and announcer Marvin Miller. These rare and wonderful shows have been transferred from original master recordings for breathtaking audio fidelity.
