The first in Rivermont's popular Big Broadcast series, this CD features a variety of excellent jazz, dance band, and vocal recordings of the 1920s and 1930s selected by Rich Conaty, who -- for more than forty years -- was host of the vintage music radio program The Big Broadcast over WFUV-FM in New York City.
