Glenn Miller
Paradise Restaurant
by
Glenn Miller’s radio performances bring the sound of his orchestra to the listener, with the polished ensemble playing and dance-band style that made Miller a defining figure in American swing. This recording is identified with the Paradise Restaurant, placing the music in the setting of a restaurant broadcast.
Expect an orchestral program centered on big-band music rather than a spoken narrative. The appeal lies in hearing the band’s coordinated brass and reeds, rhythmic drive, and carefully arranged sound in a radio performance.
This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
