Graham's special guests are Tex Beneke and Buddy De Franco.

More swinging performances from across the years and around the world featuring the finest crooners, songbirds, small groups, big bands, orchestras and instrumentalists.
Also, we’ll be meeting two more witnesses to musical history from Graham’s archive of interviews… 
In part one, veteran American Singer, Saxophonist and Bandleader Tex Beneke who was born on February the 12th, 1914;
And in part two…Virtuoso Clarinettist Buddy De Franco who was born on February the 17th, 1923;
And with Saint Valentine’s Day just around the corner, Graham’s musical theme this week is… “Romance!”
