The Best Of AFRS Jubilee, Volume 9 - No. 139 & 168
The AFRS (Armed Forces Radio Service) Jubilee shows were radio broadcasts produced during and after WWII, featuring top entertainers performing for American servicemen. This volume compiles Jubilee episodes 139 and 168, capturing a snapshot of early 1940s jazz and blues talent. The collection showcases a variety of performers—big bands cooking over rhythm and blues foundations, singers swinging with vintage warmth. The energy is infectious and immediate, the music unvarnished and live. These broadcasts are historical documents capturing jazz and blues in real time, with none of the studio polish of commercial recordings.
