Rounding out the AFRS Jubilee selection with Volume 3, this collection captures the variety programming that made these Armed Forces Radio Service broadcasts so entertaining to servicemen abroad. Beyond the big band jazz performances that anchor the program, you'll find spoken word segments, comedy routines, and dialogue pieces that give these broadcasts their distinctive flavor and historical character. The swing orchestra performances are energetic and professionally executed, featuring accomplished musicians performing standards and original compositions with the casual mastery that characterized the era. The comedy and dialogue pieces provide entertaining period-authentic interludes—some genuinely funny, all of them fascinating cultural artifacts. Together these elements create a vivid portrait of American entertainment and popular culture as experienced through radio during the World War II era.
