Henry 'Harry' Robertson was born in Scotland 16 September 1923 (died in Brisbane May 15th 1995) In the meantime, he served as a Royal Navy officer in tugs in the North Sea, became a merchant sea-man in oil tankers, an engineer with the Norwegian whaling fleet in the Antarctic (almost two years without a break) and became a 'founder of the folk movement' in Australia. He also wrote such superbities as "Humpback Whale" and "Little Pot Stove." His (now) CD, Whale Chasing Men (1971) is available at Camsco. (That's where the daughter got it for my birthday a couple of years ago.) Copyright © 2005, Abby Sale - all rights reserved What are Happy's all about? See Clicky |
