Harold Arlen (1096)
Coming up on The Atomic Age Cocktail Party, the spotlight is on songwriter Harold Arlen, the man behind such classics as “Over the Rainbow,” “The Man That Got Away,” “Stormy Weather,” and others. Arlen is one of the biggies when it comes to the Great American Songbook, up there with Cole Porter and Irving Berlin. Maybe not as well-known as the former two, but just as important to popular music of the 20th century. On the program, selections from Frank Sinatra, Abbey Lincoln, Judy Garland and many more.
