Ida Cox
This past week's episode of Woke Up Early One Morning Blues, which featured singles released in 1939 (although some of them were recorded in 1938) is now available for listening at the Self Help Radio website. I thought I should do a show with less scratchy vinyl than usual, so I picked the year war started in Europe - when Americans were still distracting themselves with the boogie woogie.
Please remember that to listen you'll need a username & a password. They are available on the website but I can confide in you that they're also here, SHR/selfhelp.
