John in Brisbane Lyr/Tune Add: Sundry Aussie Culture (25) RE: LYR & TUNE ADD: Sundry Aussie Culture 08 Oct 99


When I get a bit more time I'll post the FUll version of Jack O'Hagan's Along The Road To Gundagai (the verses for which I don't believe I've ever heard) plus Little Boy Lost which is a tear jerker based on a true story. I promise not to submit this sort of stuff too often. I am still tossing up whether to post Santa Never Made It Into Darwin - with the 25th anniversary of the destruction of Darwin coming up on Chritmas Eve.

I can't find the thread but someone was chasing Only Nineteen, which I believe to be the finest Australian song written about Vietnam. I'll certainly get that one here in the next few days. Written by John Schumann from Redgum. Which reminds me, has anyone ever posted Dusty Diamantina - one of his as well as I recall - and a bloody fine song.

And of course there's still My Boomerang Won't Come Back?

And Henry Lawson's Bush Girl? Or did Bob Bolton post this tune?

Regards, John
