Public Domain Record Party 2025

Join Adam Graham in a special edition of The Old Time Radio Snack Wagon, where we take a nostalgic journey back to 1924. As records from this year enter the public domain, Adam shares some of the era's most iconic tunes, starting with Al Jolson's lively "California Here I Come." Experience the rich baritone of John Charles Thomas with "Smilin' Through," and enjoy the soulful voice of Marion Harris on "It Had to Be You." Delve into the gospel roots with Homer Rodeheaver's "Carry Your Cross with a Smile," co-written by the prolific Charles Hutchinson Gabriel. Finally, savor the timeless classic, George Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue," performed by Paul Whiteman and his orchestra, featuring Gershwin himself on piano. Relish this unique musical retrospective as Adam highlights these newly accessible treasures before we return to our regular Old Time Radio programming.
