Although quite a few non-singers made their way onto the Music Hall, this week's guest, Clifton Webb, may be the ultimate. Enjoy this edition of the Kraft Music Hall from March, 1948, while Mr. Webb tries to bring culture and finesse to Mr. Jolson. Mr. Jolson, on the other hand, is just "plain old he!" Another great half hour of radio entertainment is your for the clicking, so sit back and enjoy this program from over seventy years ago.

The Kraft Music HallIn many ways, the Kraft Music Hall represented the peak of the comeback of Al Jolson. Here is more information about the program, including a complete listing of guest stars, and the review from Variety of the opening program.

Al Jolson's Lifebuoy Program With 99 programs broadcast over almost 2½ years, there are precious few transcriptions of this largest body of Jolson broadcast work. Here is a little bit about Al Jolson's Cafe Trocadero, later The Al Jolson Program, and a look at some of the material the IAJS has added to the catalog.
