'The World's Greatest Entertainer' - Al Jolson's billing during the 1920s. But since his death in 1950 the world has changed, and white performers in black-face - Jolson's stock-in-trade - have become less and less acceptable. Robert Parker presents a cross-section of the greatest recordings, heard for the first time in new digital stereo transfers, and with biographer Michael Freedland traces the history of Jolson's development as the first international pop star.
Al Jolson, 1926-32: The Classic Years remastered by Robert Parker, available on CDS cassette RPMC300 and CD RPCD300
