Introduced by Frank Chacksfleld featuring the strings of THE RADIO ORCHESTRA
MIKE DESMOND and sounds from Europe
Produced by JAMES DUFOUR
This is the hour at which so many lovers of sweet music make their weekly date. Frank Chacksfield presents his own particular brand of what he describes, aptly enough, as ' music for entertainment.' He introduces it, conducts it, and, for the most part, arranges it. To get an idea how far his fans spread throughout the world, you need to take a look at his stamp collection - or the exotic places his LPs go to (they sell like hot sukyaki in Japan). But for those nearer home, today is the day.
