Star Time #88: Do This Do That
This show is a mammoth production that required 84 union members and a giant crane just to get off the ground. Well, so to speak. Star Time #88 contains more individual songs -- 39 -- than any other episode since we've been at Rainier Avenue Radio. That's because they're all from the '50s and '60s when the songs were shorter and people were in a bit of a hurry. It's a very nice lineup. I'm sure you'll see someone you know.
