Heres a walk down memory lane from me my tape recording of The Harlem Globe Trotters Cartoon Off Air Reel To Reel Tape Recording 1972 & Memories played on my restored vintage Akai 4000ds MK11 reel to reel tape recorder that was available around that time period. My dad ran a line out of the speakers of our hired TV which also had piped radio a sort of early cable arrangement so I Night also record radio shows such as Friday Night is Music Night with the late great Leonard Sachs.I only have the few tapes featured in this video left these days.

Broadcast from September 12, 1970 to October 16, 1971 on CBS Saturday Morning, repeated from September 10, 1972 to May 20, 1973 on CBS Sunday Morning, and later re-run from February 4 to September 2, 1978 on NBC as The Go-Go Globetrotters. The show team members featured Meadowlark Lemon, Freddie Curly Neal, Hubert Geese Ausbie, J.C. Gip Gipson, Bobby Joe Mason, and Paul Pablo Robertson, all in animated form, alongside their fictional bus driver and manager Granny and their dog mascot Dribbles.[2]
The series worked to a formula where the team travels somewhere and typically get involved in a local conflict that leads to one of the Globetrotters proposing a basketball game to settle the issue. To ensure the Globetrotters defeat, the villains rig the contest; however, before the second half of the contest, the team always finds a way to even the odds, become all but invincible, and win the game.

Heres There Is No Death Sung by the tenor Frank Titterton from a rare 78 rpm shellac record.
There is no death : Song...OHara Geoffrey. ; OHara Geoffrey, composer.; Johnstone, Gordon, 1876-1926, lyricist.1919
Frank Titterton (31 December 1893, Handsworth – 24 November 1956, London) was a well-known British lyric tenor of the mid-twentieth century. He was noted for his musicianship.
Titterton trained originally as an actor and was a member of The Pilgrim Players (which became the Birmingham Repertory Theatre) run by Sir Barry Jackson. He began to sing as an amateur, appearing in operettas by Gilbert and Sullivan and others in Birmingham before studying singing with Ernesto Beraldi and Charles Victor in London. He then left his stage career to work as a song recitalist and in Oratorio in Britain and Holland. He later became a sought-after singing teacher in London.[1]
Tittertons career was mainly in the concert hall, though he was also a prolific broadcaster and recording artist for Vocalion, Broadcast, Columbia and Decca. Most titles were recorded under his own name, but he also used the pseudonyms Francesco Vada and Norton Collyer. Like many British singers of his era he spent much time touring the United Kingdom, appearing in popular oratorios, rather than performing in operas or giving lieder recitals.
