Who is Sharkey? We're joined by David Nichols - author, music historian and senior lecturer in Urban Planning at the University of Melbourne - to find out. This week we're discussing HIGHER AND HIGHER (1943), the film which featured Frank Sinatra in his first credited acting role. Along the way we learn about the debutante ball throughout history, the life of Australian dried-fruit-entrepreneur-turned-renaissance-man C.J. DeGaris, Guy Peellaert's "Rock Dreams" and the long careers of Mel Tormé and Dooley Wilson. David's new book, "The Alert Grey Twinkling Eyes of C.J. DeGaris", is out now through University of Western Australia Press. https://uwap.uwa.edu.au/products/the-alert-grey-twinkling-eyes-of-c-j-degaris EMAIL: suddenlypod@gmail.com INSTAGRAM: http://instagr.am/suddenlypod TWITTER: http://twitter.com/suddenlypod
