Jim asks:
>>Would it possible that this is the hotel broadcasts I listened to in
1956/57? Roosevelt Hotel seems to ring a bell.<<
Right...The Roosevelt Hotel late-night broadcasts from the Blue Room.
I used to listen frequently. I had a phone jack added to my Emerson
table radio so I could listen without disturbing anyone.
I remember there was a bad note on the piano, and the pianists would
purposely dwell on the bad note.
