This was the first of a half dozen visits made to the Kraft Music Hall by the one and only Groucho Marx in a funny, musical half-hour of radio entertainment. Sure, Oscar came along for the ride, but Groucho co-piloted this program, and showed the personality that kept him going well into the television era.

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.
