Your Hit Parade debuted on NBC radio on April 20, 1935, and moved between NBC and CBS until January 16, 1953. The radio institution billed itself as “an accurate, authentic tabulation of America’s taste in popular music.” A television version of Your Hit Parade was simulcast over NBC Radio from 1950 to 1959. During its run, the show had 19 orchestra leaders and 52 singers or groups. Every Saturday night, Your Hit Parade presented the top tunes of the week, saving the top three songs for the end of the show. The first No. 1 song on the first program was “Soon” sung by Bing Crosby. So join us in remembering a time that was truly music to your ears!
