John Henry found his fame through early radio broadcasts with his assistant "Blossom". Featuring a hen-pecked husband and his wife, his sketches coverd a variety of different scenarios. As well as his radio shows, John Henry also appeared on the halls as a great storyteller. With Blossom, he made one of the first broadcasts from an aeroplane and this is evoked in the track John Henry's Aeroplane.
