O! Sydney I Love You - Alec Kellaway

The NFSA has five separate versions of the song, O! Sydney I Love You, including two by Len Maurice, perhaps recorded at the same session. Another charming version, which may even have been recorded a couple of months earlier than Len Maurice's, is by Alec Kellaway. It was recorded with a narrow frequency response, perhaps from the microphone used, which gives it a honky ‘telephone call’ sound quality.
