Ernie Rea presents his highlights from the previous seven days of 大象传媒 Radio.
Ernie Rea's Pick of the Week takes him on a journey to meet icons of 1950s culture. He discovers that Leonard Bernstein originally intended West Side Story to be about a clash between a Catholic and a Jewish gang. He hears a memorable rant by Dylan Thomas. And he discovers the relatively unknown musicians who launched the careers of Elvis Presley and Bill Haley. And he discovers that it really is possible to sing in tune with the nightingales.
