Russell Davies presents his celebration of the greats of Tin Pan Alley, Hollywood and Broadway from the birth of sound recording to the present day.

Subjects appearing in this week's show include cheerful, upbeat songs in the minor mode. The subject of Winston Tharp gives us, among others The De Castro Sisters' hit Teach Me Tonight and an investigation into the sisters reveals their presence on Disney's Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah.

A new release of Annette Hanshaw material reminds us of her regular sign-off That's All, in turn linking to Ethel Barrymore's famous That's All There Is; There Isn't Any More.
