In this episode of V-FM Pensions, hosts Darren and Nico Chat to the PMI's new Chief Strategy Officer, Helen Forrest Hall. Helen has been in the industry for 20 or so years and has just recently joined the PMI following a glittering career spanning time at The Pensions Regulator, the NAPF, and the DWP. Helen is a self-confessed pensions and policy geek, and we get stuck into topics such as pensions and housing, TPR's approach to supervising professional trustee companies, a recent talk by the Regulator at the PMI's excellent Master Trust and DC Symposium, glide paths and investment allocation, the latest report from the IFS, and a whole lot more. We also find out how Helen got into pensions and, of course, ask what value for money means to her.

As an anthem to angst, George and Ira Gershwin's bittersweet counter-love song “But Not For Me” was well ahead of its time.The brothers penned the song in 1930 for the stage musical “Girl Crazy,” in which it was premiered by Ginger Rogers, who was appearing in the role that led to her film career. Since then, the tune has been recorded many times, though many leading vocalists like Tony Bennett don't seem to have ever given it a try, even though it is, as musician Jed Scott notes, “It's a gem of a song, and a welcome change from the AABA song form.”Waiting for JazzThe number initially failed to achieve significant pop success, charting only once. And that was a dozen years after its composition, when Harry James and His Orchestra brought it out with vocalist Helen Forrest.However, a decade after that, the song had a rebirth in the jazz world, which appreciated its kinky chord changes. As Scott noted in an online post, instead of the usual AABA of most pop standards, this 32-bar Gershwin melody is ABAB.Best of all, that second B section “has a brilliant compositional moment,” Scott observes. “In the first B, it leaps upwards to the tonic, but in the second it leaps a step higher, before climbing back down to the low tonic over the next four measures.”The result, says Scott, is “unexpected, beautiful and typical of Gershwin's clever compositional approach.”The Cool KidsThe world of 1950s cool jazz loved those leaps. A particularly beautiful understated rendering was done in 1956 by a 26-year-old superstar of the day. Trumpeter Chet Baker made it a centerpiece on his Chet Baker Sings album, achieving a perfect balance between George's upbeat melody and Ira's darker lyric.Other ‘50s jazz vocals of the tune included great ones by Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday and Sarah Vaughn. Meanwhile, instrumental versions were released in the same decade by Miles Davis, Buddy De Franco, the Modern Jazz Quarter, Kenny Burrell, Ahmad Jamal and Red Garland.Since then the song has been recorded by various crooners, from Harry Connick Jr. and Barry Manilow to Linda Ronstadt and Diana Krall.Movie Time“But Not for Me” has made occasional cameo appearances in movies too, starting out as the title tune for a 1959 Clark Gable-Carroll Baker comedy. After that, Woody Allen added it to his 1979 Manhattan, a Jackie Gleason arrangement made it into L.A. Confidential in the same year, and 15 years later, Elton John performed it in Four Weddings and a Funeral.Our Take on the TuneLast week was The Flood's first fling with the tune. See what you think.We also expect to have the song in the repertoire for our big New Year's Eve do at Huntington's beloved Alchemy Theatre. Hope you've got us on your calendar.

The biggest names in Hollywood and Broadway recorded for AFRS during the war years, The American Forces Network can trace its origins back to May 26, 1942, when the War Department established the Armed Forces Radio Service (AFRS). The U.S. Army began broadcasting from London during World War II, using equipment and studio facilities borrowed from the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC). The first transmission to U.S. troops began at 5:45 p.m. on July 4, 1943, and included less than five hours of recorded shows, a BBC news and sports broadcast. That day, Corporal Syl Binkin became the first U.S. Military broadcasters heard over the air. The signal was sent from London via telephone lines to five regional transmitters to reach U.S. troops in the United Kingdom as they prepared for the inevitable invasion of Nazi-occupied Europe. Fearing competition for civilian audiences the BBC initially tried to impose restrictions on AFN broadcasts within Britain (transmissions were only allowed from American Bases outside London and were limited to 50 watts of transmission power) and a minimum quota of British produced programming had to be carried. Nevertheless AFN programmes were widely enjoyed by the British civilian listeners who could receive them and once AFN operations transferred to continental Europe (shortly after D-Day) AFN were able to broadcast with little restriction with programmes available to civilian audiences across most of Europe (including Britain) after dark. As D-Day approached, the network joined with the BBC and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to develop programs especially for the Allied Expeditionary Forces. Mobile stations, complete with personnel, broadcasting equipment, and a record library were deployed to broadcast music and news to troops in the field. The mobile stations reported on front line activities and fed the news reports back to studio locations in London. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Entertainment Radio Stations Live 24/7 Sherlock Holmes/CBS Radio Mystery Theater https://live365.com/station/Sherlock-Holmes-Classic-Radio--a91441 https://live365.com/station/CBS-Radio-Mystery-Theater-a57491 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

He started his band in 1938 and struggled for a while until he added strings and started playing sentimental favorites that struck a chord with many people during World War 2. He also had an ear for great vocalists and there were many that sang with his band. Some of the great ones were Frank Sinatra, Helen Forrest, Dick Haymes and Kitty Kallen.

Blues upstairs and downstairs, from Nat Gonella, starts us off. Two Scottish numbers from Greenock male voice choir, with Loch Lomond and William Hannah with Caledonian circle. Hannah was a leading pre war accordionist and lived about 20 miles away from the Forgotten Songs studio in West Lothian. Also up The Avenue Tango Band with the rather tame, The golden tango girl,  Anton Walbrook, Benjamino Gigli, Carrol Gibbons and Benny Goodman, vocals by Helen Forrest. Three budget records: The Bluejays- Louise, Roland Blair- I cover the waterfront and, on a six inch The Victory label, The waters of kilarney. Frank Ferera is back with his wife Louise Greenus, Hawaiian Guitar duet. Early jazz from The  Happy six. Mr Sydney Coltham gives us a very refined song, which I think is pre 1920. Satya Chowdhury was born in Bengal, India and was very popular in the 1940s. Both starring and being a play back artist in many Indian films. Excellent track from Irish born Phil Green and his Basin Street band. He was long time arranger and conductor for Decca recorders.  What's that hammering? Ted Heath and Blacksmith Blues, vocals by Lita Rosa. Stay safe, stay positive.

Welcome to an encore presentation of a show I did in the Summer of 2015 on Artie Shaw. Here are the notes from that show: Artie Shaw has always been one of my favorite clarinetists. Since it has been a while since I did a program on Artie, I thought now is a good time. I have picked out many of Artie's hit records. In addition I'll be playing a few interview excerpts from the series "The Mystery of Artie Shaw" which ran on radio in the early 2000's. This series was produced by Ted Hallock who interviewed Artie in 1998. Artie is as feisty as ever even telling Ted at one point that one of the questions he asked was dumb. I hope you hear some of your favorite Artie Shaw recordings and enjoy the interview excerpts. The Big Band puzzler is gone this week to make time for the interview segments.
