In his third of what would be six appearances on the Kraft Music Hall, Groucho Marx joined Al Jolson and Oscar Levant on this week's program. Originally broadcast in November, 1948, Jolson referred to the film biographies of his life, and Groucho to his growing radio popularity. There are great songs and comedy, of course, on this wonderful program. You bet your life, you ain't heard nothin' yet!

 | In many ways, the Kraft Music Hall represented the peak of the comeback of Al Jolson. Here is more information about the program, including a complete listing of guest stars, and the review from Variety of the opening program. |
With 99 programs broadcast over almost 2½ years, there are precious few transcriptions of this largest body of Jolson broadcast work. Here is a little bit about Al Jolson's Cafe Trocadero, later The Al Jolson Program, and a look at some of the material the IAJS has added to the catalog.
