John ''Baby John'' Burgess is returning to Melbourne's 3MP to present breakfast. Come September the 25th the radio veteran takes over breakfast at 3MP just over 30 years since he did the same when the station launched in 1976.


Burgo is no stranger to Melbourne radio having joined 3AK from Sydney's 2UW in 1970. He also did breakfast at AK and took the shift to number one in the ratings in 1971. Many people believe it was at 3AK that Burgo was given the name ''Baby John'' although that did come earlier whilst at 2UW. He was given the nickname by Ward Austin.


With radio gigs all over the country over a long career John also presented 2CH breakfast from 1997 to 2003. Welcome back Burgo!
