I learned about this from Alton Brown, and finally listened to it yesterday. It's Arctic Outpost Radio. From the website: Spinning the 78's from the top of the world. Playing great shellacs from 1902-1958. Big Band, Jazz, Swing, Vintage Country, and Blues. As always, completely commercial free. I don't know any of the songs, but it's still entertaining. If anything else, it makes great background noise.

ETA: I have since heard the Woody Woodpecker Song, as well as what seems to be the original version of One Bourbon, One Scotch, and One Beer.

Interesting. Thank you!

I've never heard of that, I'll have to check it out.

One Bourbon song! That's George Thorogood, right? My ex-fiance loved his music and played that song all the time.

Yeah, I think it's Thorogood. The original doesn't have the long, annoying story before getting to the chorus that his version does.
