HUZZAH! Tues 7 October Phantom Dancer is NOW ONLINE till mid-November

“Ah, now what would be the highlight of today’s Phantom Dancer?” I ponder, stroking my exceedingly long chin.

“Could it be the bracket of Duke Ellington with a piano solo by the Duke himself as plays Variations On Mood Indigo on a Nat king Cole Show in 1948?”

“Or could it be the bracket of upbeat live 1940s radio swing mixing Lionel Hampton, Stan Kenton and Bobby Sherwood?”

Choose your own highlight from the play list below, then tune in to The Phantom Dancer with Greg Poppleton this Tuesday 30 September, 12noon – 2pm AEST (+10h GMT) on 107.3 2SER Sydney and online at www.2ser.com.

Julius Sumner Miller. Phantom Dancer 26 August 2014

Hello Phantom Dancers,

HEAR THIS SHOW ONLINE TILL OCTOBER AT 2SER.COM

This Tuesday’s show has a request for Bing from Nicholas. Therefore I’ll be playing Black Moonlight for both Nick and his co-worker who is a Bing Crosby fan. The lady baritone, Des Tooley, will also be heard from another commercial recording made in 1931 by Cliff Clarke and his Kookaburras.

Otherwise, it’s all swing and jazz from live 1920s-60s radio and TV. Check out the play list below.

Your Phantom Dancer Video of the Week?

For the next year I’ll be putting the Education back into 2SER, Sydney Educational Radio. I’ll be posting here the complete series of TV transcriptions recorded at the ABC in Sydney in the 1960s by Professor Julius Sumner Miller – Dramatic Demonstrations In Physics. Lesson 1: The Idea of The Centre Of Gravity.

Enjoy, learn, watch with the kids and be amazed!

Helen Humes Sings With Count Basie. Phantom Dancer Tues 19 Aug 2014

Gosh, Phantom Dancers, will there be enough radio show time to fit in Shorty Rogers Giants from a 1950s Tonight Show? I’ve held it over from two weeks ago.

HEAR TODAY’S SHOW AT 2SER.COM. ONLINE UNTIL OCTOBER

Certainly we’ll hear live swing and dance by Benny Goodman, Jimmy Joy and more. And commercial recordings by Australian singer/comedian Cyril Richards, who blazed a career in London theatre and Broadway; as well as Buenos Aires guitarist and friend of Django Reinhardt, Oscar Aleman.

John J Anthony will be back to dispense sound advice. He pulls it off well when you consider his background. This blog link, if true, makes an interesting read about the sanctimonious Mr A.

This week’s Phantom Dancer Video of the Week is an extraordinary performance of ‘I Cried For You’. It’s sung by Helen Humes with Count Basie at the piano with his small orchestra including Wardell Gray. Brilliant…
