Brian Crabbe who hosts There Goes That Song Again on community station 2RRR, which recently celebrated its 40th birthday, has put together a special to pay tribute to the early years of recently retired broadcaster John Laws, with music from the era as well.

You can listen above.

Laws was one of the early pioneers of Australian talk-back radio in 1967. Before that though he had become one of the most popular music presenters on Sydney radio and other stations. This special focuses on those earlier years, from 1953 to 1967, with classic audio and magical music.
