Historical Note
From 1955-1956 Hacker recorded a half hour, weekly radio program on WHAM called "Adventures in Jazz." It was a history lesson in jazz mixed with songs based on a weekly theme. He finished every broadcast reminding listeners to borrow books on the history of jazz from their local libraries. He reached listeners as far north as Canada, west to Minnesota, South to Deleware, and as far east as Connecticut.
