I bought physical CDs of I believe nearly every Al Jolson song and radio and interviews. Maybe 90-100 CDs or so.
Someday all will say on audio services on the internet “deleted” and “no longer available.”

In the first fully operational talking movie The Jazz Singer, Warner allowed Jolson to begin with whatever he wanted to say as the performance started. He brilliantly ad libbed “You ain’t heard nothin’ yet” because audiences had only had silent films up to then and he foresaw the expanse of the future with more technically advanced sound movies that were just beginning. Note: He was a Gemini, as Trump, Bob Dylan and me.

“He was a Gemini”

Long ago the very best on radio horoscope was — riffin’ on McDonald’s — “The Cosmic Muffin Report” and it always wrapped with this golden nugget of wisdom:
“It’s a wise man that rules the stars, and a fool who’s ruled by them.”
