We never heard him down here in the states -- just as I don't remember
ever hearing you down here.  But there was one set of 13 of his programs
in the CBC Transcription Service and I ordered and have those discs. 
They were great but they never again issued any more.

Long-time Canadian broadcaster and one of the people who made me want to
get 
into radio. Also the guy who regularly played the Comedian Harmonists,
Florence 
Foster Jenkins, Crossing the Border and "China Nights". As a CBC brat, I
met 
him when I was 5. 35 years later we'd be recording in adjacent studios.
His 
theme was the Clarinet Polka, originally the Lawrence Duchow version but
from 
1951, George Barnes.
