Premise
editThis series was hosted by David Glyn-Jones. Like Chorus Anyone in 1964, it was produced in Vancouver and regularly featured a men's choir, although the choir was now directed by Bobby Reid in the initial 1965 episodes, then by Brian Gibson for the remainder of the series run. Initially, episodes featured popular songs from the 1930s and 1940s, a scope later expanded to include selections from the 1890s to the 1960s. Ralph Grierson (piano) and Bud Henderson (bandleader) were among the series regulars who were joined by various guests.[1]
