An evening of popular and country singing recorded by the BBC Mobile
Recording Unit in a Cotswold inn
Chairman, Charles Gardiner
Singers:
George Hawkins , Lionel Ellis , Ben Benfield , Garnet Keyte , Dick Taylor , Sydney Nicholls , and other regulars of the Ebrington Arms, Ebrington
Produced by Maurice Brown
Maurice Brown took the recording car to Ebrington Arms, Ebrington, Chipping Campden, Gloucestershire, a few weeks ago, and made the recordings there for this programme. The name Ebrington is pronounced ' Yommerton ' in these parts, and is known locally as ' the place where the fools come from '. The villagers, however, say that ' only fools go there'. The singers will include a coal seller, a bricklayer, a policeman, and a man who says he is a Jack-of-all-trades. Many of the songs have never been recorded before, and most of them are drinking songs.

Once again ' A-hunting we will go ', the signature tune of this popular organist, will be heard before he gives another of his recitals. Hunt, by the way, gave the first' of these from the Empire Theatre, Coventry, on February 21 last year.
At the age of five Hunt could play the piano, and he had his first experience as a cinema pianist when only nine years old. He received his first engagement in a Surrey cinema and took up his position at the Empire Theatre, Coventry, in November, 1935.
