Gracie and the Monkeys
There used to be a song that went, "My Brother Makes the Noises for the Talkies." Well, if one works in a radio. station one realises how useful that sort of brother would be. He could make noises not only for the " talkies" but for the serials which are produced during the children’s sessions at 3ZB. In the "Swiss Family Robinson" there was an episode in which the screaming of angry monkeys was needed. It was hard to find a noise that sounded like angry monkeys. Finally Gracie did the screaming herself. She made an excellent job of it, too.
