Here is another item of interest to the collector of all things Australian, radio entertainment in particular.
Jack Davey came to Australia from NZ in 1931 and shortly after arriving, began his radio career at station 2GB.
Jack soon had his own breakfast show, a daytime quiz, an evening variety programme and voiceover work for Fox Movietone newsreels.
Abandoning his singing career, he adopted his trademark greeting of "Hi Ho, Everybody" and became Australia's highest paid and most popular radio performer.
In 1955 one of Davey's contestants was a 16 year old John Howard, who was to become PM of Australia.
This record was released in memory of Jack on the MBS (Macquarie Broadcasting Service) label.
