'''''The Big Record''''' is an [[United States|American]] [[television]] [[music]]al variety series which aired on [[CBS]] from 1957 to 1958. Originally it was an hour-long show (approximately 50 minutes excluding advertising) but later was a half-hour show (approximately 25 minutes excluding ads, as can be seen on available episodes). It was hosted by Patti Page (1927-2013), who sang songs and introduced the guest performers. Most of the music was of the pop genre, although other styles of music were also featured, including [[jazz]], [[rock and roll]], and (very occasionally) [[County music|country]]. Professional dancers also sometimes appeared as guests.
