Jolson made his first appearance
on radio
the same year that he recorded
I'll Stand Beneath Your Window,
1922.
Most of Jolson's
radio performances
from the 1920s and 30s
are lost forever.
He always performed live,
and reference recordings
of these early live broadcasts
were not always made
and saved.
The relatively few
surviving transcriptions
from that era
are a rare treat.
I'd like to share some live radio
performances
that have never been commercially
released.
As you'll hear, Jolson comes on big
with that boundless energy of his.
