In the summer of 1960-61 the West Indies, under the captaincy of Frank Worrell, arrived to play Australia, under the captaincy of Richie Benaud, in a series of Test cricket. Now known as the greatest Test series ever played, the matches produced the first ever tie in Test match history in Brisbane, a nail biting draw in Adelaide and a world record Test match crowd of 90,800 in Melbourne.
That summer, that Calypso summer, is captured on audio with humorous anecdotes, poignant reflections by the people who participated, and Test cricket at its best. Any cricket fan will relish the opportunity to take a sentimental journey back to the summer when cricket fever swept the nation.
