“Waltz Time” was a popular radio program created and produced by Frank and Anne Hummert, more well known for their work in soap operas. The series was on the air for fifteen years and presented popular light orchestral music.
Program 69 in the series as heard on Armed Forces Radio was originally broadcast on NBC on January 26, 1945. It was sponsored by Phillips Milk of Magnesia on NBC, but the commercials are omitted here. The first tune is “I Dream of You”, sung by Frank Munn. The program features Frank Munn, Evelyn MacGregor, Abe Lyman and His Orchestra, and the Amsterdam Chorus. Howard Duff is the announcer for AFRS. This appears to be a previously lost/uncirculated episode of the series.
Our program was transferred to digital from an original vinyl Armed Forces Radio transcription disc.
My thanks to blog listener William Harris for his donation of the disc to the blog. We’ll be hearing more episodes of “Waltz Time” in the coming weeks.
