Big Band Bash is a show presenting the music, musicians, and era of the great Big Bands. Each show highlights a different aspect of the big bands, whether it be a show about a certain band or bandleader or a subject of the big bands anywhere from the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. I hope to get your feet tapping with this great music.

episode 532: WW2 DDay Revisited - Part 1
June 6, 1944 was an important day in the history of World War 2. It was called D-Day because it marked the invasion of Normandy, France. Since we just passed June 6th, I thought I would revisit some of the music from 1942 - 1945. I did a little research and took note of all the songs that were in the number one spot either on the jukeboxes or the airways (radio). Today we will be listening to number one hits from 1942 and 1943 and next week I'll have the number one hits from the last two years. This is a show with a lot of your favorites as we remember the anniversary of June 6th. Thanks again for listening. Please visit this podcast at http://bigbandbashfm.blogspot.com
