With World Cup fever gripping the garden shed we thought it a fine idea to place Albert Whelan on the wheel of steel. Albert was considered one of the few Australians able to make an impression on the English music hall stage. Here he monologues away creating possibly the worlds first football record. Released in 1931 on 10" shellac this recording was a favourite of John Peel and can be found on a Trikont CD entitled John Peel & Sheila The Pig's Big 78s. YouTube link below.
