Not sure if he`s still active on the scene there but I put on Paul Kelly/Neil Finn of Crowded House`s Live at the Sydney Opera House yesterday, such a phenomenal performance
15-20 years ago, worked with this terrific girl at a restaurant and a bunch of us went to her place to pre-drink and she played Paul Kelly and that was it for me, have so much of his stuff downloaded
This was the first tune of his she played but I found out quickly he`s far more of a folk singer than a rocker
"Don't Dream It's Over" is one of my favorites. Original, acoustic, extra-crispy - any way you slice it, it's one of my favorites.
And related to the Aussie kick, one of the last movies I saw in an actual movie theater was a documentary of INXS's Michael Hutchence. Such talent, and such a sad ending to his story. I always have to double-take whenever we play the Jets and I hear "Michael Hutchin...son".
