- Abstract
- "Glazer was taking part in an experiment by the Public Health Service, began in the late 1940s, called “VD Radio Project” (the “VD” was a nicer way of saying venereal disease). He wrote and performed this little song to introduce seven short announcements about venereal disease and the importance of getting seen by a doctor"--Sandy Rodriguez.
