You might be right in Minnesota frogprince, but in Australia, it's a matter of history that the Fergie was the tractor of choice. If you get Peter's CD you'll see a photo on the cover of the statue they set up here to honour the fergie's contribution to the country. If you get the CD you'll find that Peter is called by his nickname of "Hayseed" and at the time not many people remembered his real name. I was involved in the production of the record with Peter Parkhill and we both played on it. We tried recording in the studio but Peter's unique character was lost there so we carted a tape recorder into the Dan O'Connell pub and recorded it live. Hayseed usually performed unaccompanied and had an unusual style of timing to say the least, but he wanted instruments behind him as it was believed that nobody would buy a record of unaccompanied singing. The recording was actually made around 1980. I know that because we'd recorded the song in September 1979, before Peter's own recording. Anyway, as you will hear, the whole night was a hoot and all but one track was first take, with the audience getting right into the spirit of things. Actually, my favourite song is "The Mallee Sheep-crutcher".
