Plantation Jubilee is a radio program centered on Black musical traditions and entertainment. Its title evokes the jubilee and plantation-song repertoire that shaped many popular broadcasts of the era, offering listeners a musical variety experience rather than a single narrated story.

This recording is identified with the date July 29, 1949, and the title “Dinah.” The program’s appeal lies in hearing its music and performance style in their original radio setting, where songs provide the focus and the broadcast brings a period sound directly to the listener.


This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
