We’re also talking live at 5pm with motivated Howick College students collecting essential supplies for the Hawke’s Bay relief effort following the devastating Cyclone Gabrielle, and are heading down there to work voluntarily and help out.
Fifty years ago, Larry Small signed a recording contract with Zodiac Records (Stebbings), releasing singles such as Love is Alive (in my Heart), which went top 10 on Auckland’s 1ZB and 1ZM radio station playlists, and was out the same week as John Hanlon’s Damn the Dam single.
We’ll be talking with Larry in-studio from 3.15pm about that special time in Auckland’s entertainment history, and what he did before and has done since, from “starting out drumming in dance bands at age 12 in the Far North”.
“This was followed by switching to guitar and vocals in pop bands when I shifted to Whangarei,” says Larry.
“I then moved to Auckland for university (BA and MA degrees) and got a break to take over from Tom Sharplin as resident singer at Surfside in Milford.
“At the same time I was vocalist for The Arthur Skelton Dance Band Orchestra, performing at midweek dances at the Peter Pan, Mandalay and Orange Ballrooms.”
Larry Small also made television appearances on Happen Inn, Popco, and Hudson & Halls, and won an Entertainer of the Year award in Northland.
He then stepped away from band work and began performing as a solo guitarist singer throughout NZ, Australia and the Pacific Islands, managed under contract by Hegan Entertainment Agency.
Larry Small's single releases can be heard on You Tube.
East FM is East Auckland’s fair-dinkum community-powered public service radio station, on 88.1FM and 107.1FM on local frequencies, nationally and globally at www.eastfm.nz... and on app iHeart Radio.
She’ll Be Right - it’s all about the vibe; it’s all about the groove. And this Saturday, we’re stepping back onto the dance floor of the 1970s. – PJ

They generously sponsored a kit called 'A Load of Rubbish'. This kit teaches students about recycling, linear and circular economies and aligns with HERA's sustainability goals. Students also get to play with several different super absorbent polymers, make their own bio-plastic out of cornflour and investigate 7 straws from the raw materials through to the end use. When I visited HERA to show them the kit, they were blown away by how comprehensive it was and that the kits are bilingual.
