Guest Star - Pgm 681 - April 10, 1960

Here’s another in our series of late era “Guest Star” programs that were syndicated by the Treasury Department to promote Savings Bonds.

Program 681 in the series features vocalist Betty Johnson and the first is “You Don’t Care a Rowboat”, which she released on Atlantic records.  Johnson, by the way, is a native of Guilford County, North Carolina.  Her vocal style reminds me a bit of Dinah Shore.  The show features  Harry Sosnik’s Orchestra and the announcer is Del Sharbutt.

Our mp3 was transferred direct from a sixteen inch vinyl microgroove Treasury Department vinyl transcription.
