A mainstay of Dick Schory’s percussion ensemble, Bobby Christian recorded a number of excellent space age pop albums on his own. Raised in Chicago, he studied music in his teens and then toured throughout the Midwest with a series of now-forgotten dance bands. He quit the road in the mid-1940s and joined the musical staff of NBC Radio in Chicago, under the leadership of Roy Shield.
