The Big Broadcast - History of Australian Broadcasting

Cat# 2ABCL8206

1982

Fantastic, collectable double album detailing Australian Broadcasting (ABC-BBC not commercial) with great sound tracks from such events as:

ABC announcement on first transmission 1932
Speech from the first flight Australia to England 1934
Death of King George V 1936
Chamberlain giving assurances of peace with Germany 1938
Chamberlain announcing we are at war with Germany 1939
Many many historic moments in Australian radio history, captured on sound right through the War years (1939-45) then onto 1960s through to 1982

Such moments as the announcement of Whitlams dismissal 1975
Jingle for decimal currency

Lots of music, speech grabs and announcements relevant to the periods in time, see my complete tracking listing below.

An absolute gem for the serious Australian radio history collector
