jiminks, "Suppertime Frolic" had a D.J. but the music was all recorded, and as I recall, pretty good, Hank Williams, etc. The Aragon Ballroom show had live big band music, and my recollection is that the commentary and interviews were with visiting celebrities rather than the musicians themselves, maybe an occasional vocalist with the band, but local pols and supposedly namey business folks. The bands were top notch if not always big name. Long after the show ended, I remember seeing the hotel from the bus going downtown, a skyscraper in the midst of lower buildings, and then one day it was gone, demolished. It outlived its use as a hotel.
