Making his fourth appearance on the Kraft Music Hall, contemporary radio star Victor Moore returned to the program this Thursday in May, 1949. Although not well known today, at the time Moore was a regular on a top rated radio show, and brought his own audience to join Jolson's. As always, great songs and performances grace this half hour of radio. The show had only a few weeks left to run, but it continued with the same great entertainment.

Victor Moore and Al Jolson


The Kraft Music HallIn 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.

Al Jolson's Lifebuoy 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.
