Spinning My Dads VinylAuthor: Frank Vaccariello
Extensive and Eclectic and we hear them as is with skips, scratches, and pops. Being a radio and mobile DJ for a decade and a half, I collected several hundred albums. I had nothing on my dad who owned more than 500 (33 1/3) LPs and over 100 78 RPMs at the time of his death in December 2019. I had no idea he had so many. We found them spread all over the house when we prepared for the estate sale. I went through every one and categorized them on an app called Discogs. I thought so many were unique, I decided to start a podcast called Spinning My Dads Vinyl. Each episode will feature an album. Ill tell stories about the family listening to these albums and Ill give other info about the album and the time it was released.

Volume 234: Sugar Blues
Episode 2027
Sunday, 22 June, 2025
What? Yet another trumpet player in my dad’s collection I haven’t introduced you to yet? But of course. Clyde McCoy is not nearly as well known as the myriad of other horn players I’ve shown off, but he recorded a lot of music from 1917 through 1985. His 1931 version of a song written nine years earlier set off a mini craze within jazz and set his career on fire. So get ready to hear a trumpet played in such a style that it inspired a popular electronic tool for guitar players used still to this day in Volume 234: Sugar Blues. For more information about this album, see the Discogs webpage for it.
