On this fine Sunday morning, while the rest of San Francisco was preoccupied with the Bay to Breakers, DJ McSchmormac wove a fine tapestry of pre-1951 recordings, including two each by Cléoma Breaux and Igor Stravinsky, and a bunch of other unpredictable what-not! If variety is the spice of life, you might need a cool drink while you’re listening to this show! – Sound reproductions: 1906-1949.
