The fourth volume in a series of radio transcriptions, this installment collects 31 tracks from 1946-47 including comedy skits, advertisements, themes and introductions. Excellent liner notes by the surviving Blue Sky Boy, Bill Bollick, comment track-by-track on the origins of the songs. A few fiddle breakdowns are included in addition to the usual vocal duos and trios on remakes of their RCA recordings as well as tunes they never otherwise recorded. The Blue Sky Boys were in their commercial prime around the time of these recordings, and this disc is a must for fans of their influential close harmonies, especially as the world waits for an anthology of their classic 1940s Victor Bluebird sides. ~ Greg Adams, All Music Guide [-] Collapse
