IN JANUARY 2008, LEGENDARY OZ SINGER JUDY STONE AND COUNTRY SINGER LEANNE DOUGLAS PRESENTED ME WITH AN AUTOGRAPHED COPY OF THE CHARITY FUND RAISER 12" SINGLE BY THE SUPER GROUP OF ARTISTS WHO CALLED THEMSELVES "AUSTRALIA TOO". THE SONG WAS CALLED "THE GARDEN". IN 2007, I HAD HELPED JUDY WITH SOME MUSIC LEGAL ISSUES AND FOR MY KINDNESS THEY SURPRISED ME WITH A LOVELY MEMENTO OF ONE OF THE TIMES JUDY AND LEANNE HAD WORKED TOGETHER. YOU WILL FIND THEIR NAMES IN THE LIST OF ARTISTS - CLICK LONG LIST PHOTO BELOW...
JUDY AND LEANNE ARE IN THE PHOTO AT RIGHT WITH MOI...YES, THAT'S ME...THE SHORT, OLD, BALD, FAT ONE...
"THE GARDEN" IS ALMOST 6 MINS LONG. THE NUMBER OF SINGERS ON IT INCLUDES ALL THE BEST THAT AUSTRALIA HAD TO OFFER AT THE TIME. ALL PROCEEDS FROM THE RECORD WENT TO FREEDOM FROM HUNGER FOR AFRICA. THE SONG WAS WRITTEN BY ALLAN CASWELL WHO ALSO WROTE THE THEME "ON THE INSIDE" FOR THE POPULAR OZ T.V. SHOW "PRISONER".
THIS WAS THE FIRST RECORD I EVER CONVERTED TO C.D. AND IT SOUNDS GREAT..
