A Sydney-produced variety series with emphasis on music, it was hosted by John Laws and produced by ATN-7, with the series shown interstate (such as on HSV-7 in Melbourne). In Sydney it aired each Saturday at 7:30PM in a 60 minute timeslot.^[1] It was produced by American Gil Rodin, and was seen as a follow-up to the Revue '62 series.^[2]
