Band-ter John Farnham

For many of us, especially those of us who grew up in the 70s and 80s, he was as part of our Aussie culture as Countdown, Vegemite and the footy.

Australian rock historian Ian McFarlane summed him up as ‘the most successful solo artist in the history of Australian rock and pop... an affable sense of humour and a simple, unpretentious 'everyman' charm which also makes him one of the most respected celebrities in Australian entertainment history’.
