Beginning with the dawning of the Top 40 era in 1957, these podcasts will trace the development of Australian Music through three initial series; Charts, Singers and Groups. Whilst the first batch of podcasts will move forward from 1957, later work will have a reverse focus, exploring the rich and diverse world of Australian Music pre-Top 40 era.

After a “voice rest” break, we are back with the promised Judy Stone Podcast Part One. This first episode of Judy’s story covers her recordings for the period 1961-62. There is also a bit of background, delving into her very early career, including her ‘discovery’ by Reg Lindsay. As always, this podcast is mainly about the Music and, wow, did Judy record some songs that go way back. The oldest was first recorded in 1924! That particular song also, in a strange bit of trivia, has a link to Gilligan’s Island! Judy’s biggest hit for this period was “I’ll Step Down” but there was also one 45 single that did not chart; the vagaries of the Music Industry. I hope that you enjoy this ‘deep dive’ into Judy Stone’s early career.
