Aus 103 - Jazz Transplant


A Collection of Aussie Radio Shows No 103 Jazz Transplant.   The late Andrew Bissett (20 January 1953 – 14 April 2005), noted Australian author, Music educator and Singer, followed the success of his book "Black Roots, White Flowers - A History of Jazz in Australia with the radio program "Jazz Transplant".   I was so happy to have known Andrew and he gave me permission to run his brilliant series on a "former" raio station I was involved with for many years. They lost that right when I left. Using the medium of Youtube I am sure many Jazz lovers will be thrilled to be able to hear this wonderful program which traces Jazz in Australia right up to the outbreak of World War 2. Thank you Andrew...you are a star and a Jazz legend!   Text: Alex Hehr   Disclaimer: By uploading these files, I make no claim to ownership or copyright. These recordings have been acquired from publicly available sources on the Internet, and my goal has been to put together a collection of every available episode where possible. I will add to these collections if I discover new episodes or if any new episodes become available. Additionally, while I tried to put together a collection that contains the best version of each episode that I could, there may be better copies of some recordings available from collectors and dealers, and I encourage you to reach out to them if you are so inclined. If they are not in the public domain, notify me and they will be deleted.

This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
