New Year's Eve/Day Broadcast Schedule
Radio Dismuke will ring in the New Year in
all four continental United States time zones with our eighth
annual New Year's Eve broadcast. Joining Dismuke on the
broadcast will be guest contributors Eddie The Collector, Eric,
Christian and Matt From College Station who will be bringing
lots of fun and interesting 1920s and 1930s recordings from
their respective 78 rpm record collections. The year 2013
will also mark the 100th anniversary of the year 1913 - so we
will commemorate the occasion by including a few recordings from
that year as well. 2013 is also the 100th anniversary of the
introduction of the Edison Diamond Disc, a very unusual type of
disc record manufactured by the Thomas Edison company from 1913
- 1929 - so we will also be playing some jazz and dance band Edison
records. And we will also feature one of the world's first
long playing records - a ten inch 80 rpm Edison disc from 1926
that had a playing time in excess of twenty minutes per
side. The records were not commercially successful and
only a few were made so they are extremely rare today. We
will not play the entire record all the way though - but we will
sample several minutes worth of it. There is no
better way to get a brand new year off to a great start than
with lots of happy, jazzy and melodic vintage recordings.
For those who have other plans on New
Year's Eve or reside in time zones where the initial broadcast
occurs at odd hours, the entire program will be rebroadcast in
continuous rotation throughout New Year's Day.
