Chuck Schaden’s MEMORY LANE Podcast – September, 2016
REMEMBERING: The king of the road in song and sign as we recall not only the road, but those famous Burma Shave messages along the way. Also: A movie that takes place almost exclusively on Labor Day and a mini-salute to Labor itself as depicted on the Silver Screen. Plus an “event” in baseball history and some significant September birth dates, including a salute to George Gershwin as he plays his “Rhapsody in Blue” with Paul Whiteman and the orchestra in a 1927 performance. 61 minutes.
