Marcy was on with us having a chat. 0:05:40.360 --> 0:05:42.200 And it seems to have been quite sudden her passing 0:05:42.240 --> 0:05:46.119 because in the hell Sun today there's an article about 0:05:46.160 --> 0:05:49.719 her being ill but not not nothing, sort of as 0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:52.800 dramatic as you know, she's on the edge of death. 0:05:52.960 --> 0:05:55.520 But obviously the things took a turn for the worst. 0:05:55.839 --> 0:05:57.000 Sometime later in the day. 0:05:57.160 --> 0:05:59.440 We'll find out from Norman, because they were very close, 0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:02.640 very good for for a lifetime, So we'll find out 0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:07.039 from normally after eleven what he knows.

That looks 0:06:56.640 --> 0:06:57.640 terribly scary. 0:06:57.839 --> 0:07:02.600 It's not as scary as you think, but it's more suspense, 0:07:02.720 --> 0:07:04.360 a suspense and uncomfortable. 0:07:04.400 --> 0:07:05.360 Yeah, it's probably the best. 0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:07.200 Way, but just don't quite know what's going to happen. 0:07:07.240 --> 0:07:08.800 The trailer looks really good. 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:12.640 And the suspense, especially for the first half, is really strong, 0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:15.280 and then when you get to about halfway you go, oh, okay, 0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:17.920 this maybe isn't as much as I thought it was 0:07:17.960 --> 0:07:20.760 going to be. But yes, it's not for the faint hearted, 0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:24.120 and there's some quite unpleasant moments, let's put it that way. 0:07:24.280 --> 0:07:28.600 Okay, But good work here if you. 0:07:28.680 --> 0:07:31.360 Like, yeah, if you like that sort of thing, or 0:07:31.400 --> 0:07:33.560 if you like to see the scenery of Adelaide, which 0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:36.280 does look beautiful in the movie. 0:07:35.800 --> 0:07:38.720 All that sandstone, all that wonderful sandstone they deal with. 0:07:38.760 --> 0:07:41.440 They filmed it in the in the Adelaide Hills, so 0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:44.760 it's just showing all this beautiful nature and scenery as well. 0:07:44.800 --> 0:07:46.720 Like they've done a very good job with that. 0:07:47.800 --> 0:07:51.080 It's a pretty silly, yeah, Andrew, anything else to report 0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:51.680 for your weekend? 0:07:52.560 --> 0:07:53.200 The photos? 0:07:53.240 --> 0:07:53.760 That was it? 0:07:53.800 --> 0:07:54.040 All right? 0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:56.240 So we're done, all right, So we get to a 0:07:56.280 --> 0:08:01.720 break and get our special guest star.

And something's come up 0:09:44.960 --> 0:09:49.760 that's kind of special and it's coming together really, really well. 0:09:49.960 --> 0:09:52.439 And that's when you know. You get back out on 0:09:52.480 --> 0:09:53.600 the road and you're like, Okay, I want to talk 0:09:53.600 --> 0:09:53.960 about this. 0:09:54.600 --> 0:09:57.559 Yeah, lovely, do you want to tell us what it is? 0:09:57.880 --> 0:09:58.920 No, I lose today? 0:09:59.240 --> 0:09:59.760 Okay, cool? 0:10:01.800 --> 0:10:06.160 I was giving you belief. Well, it's coming up for 0:10:06.200 --> 0:10:10.440 about forty years since Australian made the very famous Australian Tour, 0:10:11.000 --> 0:10:14.160 which by the way, came about because a gauntlet was 0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:16.680 set down and it was and what they'd sort of 0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:20.520 claimed was that you couldn't have all Australian cast on 0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:24.880 an Australian festival and have it succeed. That was what 0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:27.080 they were saying at the time. And I remember Jimmy 0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:28.960 Barnes he said, oh, that's a lot of volted and 0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:31.319 then there was Michael Hutchins and then there but then 0:10:31.360 --> 0:10:34.040 they put a list of artists of the times, including 0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:38.920 I'm talking I think you mentioned, but there were the models, 0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:44.320 the Saints, the Vinyls, there were medal as anything. I mean, 0:10:44.440 --> 0:10:47.000 the list went on, but basically it was it was 0:10:47.040 --> 0:10:50.600 in excess and Jimmy and and we all agreed that 0:10:50.640 --> 0:10:53.320 we were going to go out and show them that 0:10:53.360 --> 0:10:55.760 Australia could actually show up for itself. 0:10:55.760 --> 0:10:58.960 And we did and did it very well. Took well, 0:10:59.000 --> 0:11:02.520 you've gotta made two coming up now, good title for it. 0:11:02.559 --> 0:11:05.360 Of course on the fortieth year, and you start in 0:11:05.360 --> 0:11:07.240 Bateman's Babe, but you're coming to Melbourne. 0:11:07.400 --> 0:11:07.960 You going to wait? 0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:10.400 In fact, where aren't you going? Every state as far 0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:11.839 as I can see in Australia, isn't it? 0:11:12.400 --> 0:11:12.640 Well? 0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:13.080 I did. 0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:16.000 I just decided I'm working with my husband on this 0:11:16.160 --> 0:11:18.800 and we sort of went around regionally with the idea. 0:11:18.800 --> 0:11:20.439 I haven't been out to the regions in such a 0:11:20.440 --> 0:11:24.800 long time. It's kind of where I started. And the 0:11:24.920 --> 0:11:30.040 show it's pretty it's it's basically we get to perform 0:11:30.080 --> 0:11:32.480 a lot of the material from all the artists that 0:11:32.520 --> 0:11:36.400 were represented on that trip. And then as I bought 0:11:36.400 --> 0:11:38.440 it through and over three forty years, we go through 0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:43.000 to a whole other variety of Australian artists including like 0:11:43.200 --> 0:11:48.559 really while everything, Paul Kelly, wolf Mother, Megan Washington, Bernard Fanning, 0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:54.680 you name it. Like, there's just this whole, trawling, fishing 0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:56.200 line of all Australian music. 0:11:56.679 --> 0:11:58.880 So how do you narrow it down to a playlist 0:11:58.880 --> 0:12:03.520 that will fit in one concept? Are these just sort 0:12:03.520 --> 0:12:04.760 of your personal favorites? 0:12:05.760 --> 0:12:05.960 Yeah? 0:12:06.000 --> 0:12:08.360 I had to choose it on a real personal level 0:12:08.559 --> 0:12:13.439 and on how the times as I've just and also 0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:17.200 the people that I've worked with. You know, I'm sad 0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:21.080 to have to tell you, but mostly all of the headliners, 0:12:21.200 --> 0:12:24.480 or at least the singers, the lead singers in our past, yeah, 0:12:25.200 --> 0:12:30.800 the ones standing at Sean and myself and Jimmy of course, yes, 0:12:31.280 --> 0:12:34.880 And so to be able to play homage to those 0:12:35.920 --> 0:12:39.480 great artists and know that also, none of it really 0:12:39.520 --> 0:12:41.160 had to have anything to do with Like it's not 0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:43.839 like today where you know a bill will be picked 0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:47.000 because everyone's sort of similar. We had nothing in common 0:12:47.600 --> 0:12:51.040 and it was so it represents stradia so well because 0:12:51.080 --> 0:12:53.280 there were punk bands and there were pop bands, and 0:12:53.320 --> 0:12:57.400 there was rock bands, and that is kind of like 0:12:57.440 --> 0:12:59.960 the profile of Straliing music. So anyway, I talk about 0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:02.560 all the people I've met and stories along the way, 0:13:02.640 --> 0:13:06.120 but I don't. I just perform a lot of the 0:13:06.160 --> 0:13:08.080 songs and then we re announce it with the reasons 0:13:08.120 --> 0:13:09.280 why they're important to me? 0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:10.959 Is there going to be a bit of Kate Sobrano 0:13:10.960 --> 0:13:11.560 and amongst it all? 0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:14.480 Though, of course. 0:13:14.240 --> 0:13:15.160 Does a cut out a bum? 0:13:15.679 --> 0:13:16.360 It's just like. 0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:22.319 I can't I can't not mention how the decades have 0:13:22.400 --> 0:13:24.720 passed and there was a hit that happened on every 0:13:24.800 --> 0:13:27.839 kind of passing of every ten years, and yeah, are 0:13:27.840 --> 0:13:30.320 we definitely doing all those yes? 0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:32.760 Please? Yeah, Well you got as far as Victoria goes, 0:13:32.800 --> 0:13:35.040 you're going to be in Aubrey. We'll give the well, 0:13:35.080 --> 0:13:37.120 actually i'll give more detail about how people can find 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:38.520 out where you're going to be. But you're going to 0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:40.280 be in Ringwoods, You're going to be in Frankston, You're 0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:42.160 going to be in Bending, You're going to you're really 0:13:42.200 --> 0:13:45.400 doing a lot of work. How's it feel You've been 0:13:45.400 --> 0:13:47.160 touring that for at least forty years? How does it 0:13:47.160 --> 0:13:49.560 feel like another gig, another motel and all that you 0:13:49.640 --> 0:13:50.559 still cope with it? 0:13:50.679 --> 0:13:56.600 Kate, No, this one's very special, Like I'm actually taking 0:13:56.640 --> 0:14:01.880 out a trio. It sounds pretty bizarre, but we're all 0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:04.920 multi instrumentalists, so we're kind of we all trade all 0:14:04.960 --> 0:14:08.080 of the instruments, just the three of us. There's a 0:14:08.120 --> 0:14:11.880 young girl, Kathleen Hallerin who's an incredible guitarist, and Darren 0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:15.200 Harts I'm on drums and piano, and we all swap 0:14:15.200 --> 0:14:18.120 and we all sort of sing and it's just a 0:14:18.160 --> 0:14:19.880 different sort of stuff. So I'm excited. 0:14:19.960 --> 0:14:20.400 I reckon. 0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:24.080 I mean, really, the key to staying young is to 0:14:24.160 --> 0:14:31.520 surround yourself with young, inspired people, and at my age, 0:14:31.680 --> 0:14:34.440 I just really feel it's important to express how important 0:14:34.480 --> 0:14:39.560 Straliing music is and to give an honor all of 0:14:39.560 --> 0:14:41.560 the artists that have inspired and kept me in the 0:14:41.560 --> 0:14:44.560 business for so long. And these kids they went is 0:14:44.600 --> 0:14:48.360 in born when Australia made happen, and so the audience 0:14:48.480 --> 0:14:52.560 is I just look, I'm probably speaking ahead of its time. 0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:54.200 I just really think people are really. 0:14:54.000 --> 0:14:54.760 Going to love this show. 0:14:54.840 --> 0:14:59.600 It's for all reasons. It's everyone's memory with justad Water, 0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:03.080 Everyone's memories, you know, Yeah. 0:15:02.680 --> 0:15:06.120 Well, no one better to do it because you've lived there, 0:15:06.280 --> 0:15:08.960 you lived through it and were part of it. And yeah, 0:15:09.120 --> 0:15:11.960 now exactly celebrating it all, which is marvelous. So do 0:15:12.000 --> 0:15:14.000 you tell a story or two in between the songs 0:15:14.000 --> 0:15:14.800 on stage? 0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:15.920 Yeah. 0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:18.400 At the we've got like a bit of a sort 0:15:18.400 --> 0:15:22.400 of setup where there's a VIP kind of experience and 0:15:22.480 --> 0:15:25.360 I get to talk with them and I explained the 0:15:25.440 --> 0:15:27.960 history and the context of the songs. Then the show 0:15:28.040 --> 0:15:32.360 begins and then once we're in it Definitely do Yeah, 0:15:32.400 --> 0:15:36.120 I definitely do tell about people and what it was 0:15:36.240 --> 0:15:39.600 like to really like rub shoulders with some of the 0:15:39.600 --> 0:15:45.240 most important people in Australian music, and what it felt 0:15:45.280 --> 0:15:48.160 like to be very young and standing in the wings, 0:15:48.200 --> 0:15:51.880 you know, between Rene Gayer and Chrissy Amphlet or something. 0:15:51.880 --> 0:15:54.480 There was like there was a dynamic that I learned 0:15:54.720 --> 0:15:59.160 about women and certainly the differences of women in the 0:15:59.200 --> 0:16:03.440 seventies based and what they'd been up against. Lots of 0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:06.200 things like that. Just really interesting stories that have to 0:16:06.200 --> 0:16:09.160 do with what shape me as an artist. 0:16:09.640 --> 0:16:14.240 Kate. I first became aware of you singing, Oh, I say, yeah, 0:16:14.440 --> 0:16:16.720 I said, the Georgie Fame thing. Yeah, yeah, that's the song, 0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:17.040 isn't it? 0:16:17.160 --> 0:16:17.880 Oh my god? 0:16:18.520 --> 0:16:18.720 Yeah? 0:16:19.080 --> 0:16:21.720 And I was watching TV one night. To be honest, 0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:23.760 I didn't know you. I didn't know who. I didn't 0:16:23.760 --> 0:16:25.680 know who I'm talking really was about. But there was 0:16:25.680 --> 0:16:27.680 this and then most it was this dark haired girl 0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:31.000 and she's got this big smile and she's moving and 0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:35.880 she's committed to I thought, who's that? And because there 0:16:35.920 --> 0:16:37.800 was no name given, it was just this I'm talking 0:16:37.840 --> 0:16:39.360 and now on to the next act. I can't remember 0:16:39.360 --> 0:16:41.200 what the show was, and it was and it was 0:16:41.280 --> 0:16:43.920 turned out that was you. And it's interesting how you've 0:16:43.960 --> 0:16:46.520 stayed in my mind for years before I actually knew 0:16:46.560 --> 0:16:48.480 who you were until he went and that was when 0:16:48.560 --> 0:16:51.080 till he went solo, and then ah, that's that girl. 0:16:51.480 --> 0:16:57.480 It's the power of smiling is almost. 0:16:59.600 --> 0:17:01.600 He's got like it's it's the way that you let 0:17:01.640 --> 0:17:05.320 the light out. I mean, it is, That's it. 0:17:06.440 --> 0:17:08.920 I'll chuck in Kate that, yes, this the smell is important, 0:17:08.920 --> 0:17:10.679 but it's great to have talent to becc it up. 0:17:11.000 --> 0:17:16.239 Yes, but it does help tell it get through all 0:17:16.240 --> 0:17:16.639 the things. 0:17:17.080 --> 0:17:20.480 No, that's beautiful though, I really appreciate that, and I do. 0:17:20.640 --> 0:17:24.479 I do think that there are and as I you know, 0:17:24.520 --> 0:17:27.479 like as I've come through the ranks with people around 0:17:27.520 --> 0:17:30.920 me like Michael Hutchinson, even see her. For instance, when 0:17:30.960 --> 0:17:33.959 she was a kid, I'd go to Adelaide and her 0:17:34.080 --> 0:17:36.359 dad would actually always ask me as I was coming 0:17:36.400 --> 0:17:38.479 into town, is it okay to see it? Gets up 0:17:38.480 --> 0:17:42.439 and has a thing Like she was twelve and you 0:17:42.440 --> 0:17:45.600 could tell you could tell that a person was coming, 0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:48.800 you know, like you could see that they had something 0:17:48.840 --> 0:17:53.399 about them that was that was so distinctly different. You 0:17:53.440 --> 0:17:55.719 could call it ambition, but it's not. It's more like 0:17:55.760 --> 0:17:58.320 a kind of like a destiny, you know, you just 0:17:58.800 --> 0:18:00.359 you can feel that they're meant to do it. 0:18:00.440 --> 0:18:02.960 Couldn't agree more. And you've see it on the musical stage. 0:18:03.000 --> 0:18:05.000 You see it sometimes on a movie screen. Do you 0:18:05.040 --> 0:18:08.239 think that act to playing that relatively small role and 0:18:08.280 --> 0:18:10.840 he's really or she's really good, you. 0:18:10.800 --> 0:18:14.080 Know, you just can't take your eyes off exactly what. Yeah, 0:18:14.200 --> 0:18:17.639 it's definitely. It's definitely in the arts. I think that 0:18:18.000 --> 0:18:22.439 it's in particular with music, Like musicians either have it 0:18:22.520 --> 0:18:24.440 or they don't. You know, you can be as technically 0:18:24.560 --> 0:18:29.840 trained as the next person, but it's that little extra 0:18:30.400 --> 0:18:33.280 willingness to kind of want to be seen. And I 0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:36.119 don't think it's very straight in to want to be 0:18:36.200 --> 0:18:39.280 seen as a rule, like we tend to hide, and 0:18:39.320 --> 0:18:41.720 we tend to sort of like fall into the shadows 0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:43.239 and want to be a lot like our friends and 0:18:43.280 --> 0:18:46.240 not really stick out of the crowd. But for me, 0:18:46.320 --> 0:18:50.200 as a kid, I found I felt free on stage 0:18:50.920 --> 0:18:53.399 and I felt like it was the safest place in 0:18:53.400 --> 0:18:57.120 the room for me. So I just kept gravitating to it. 0:18:57.119 --> 0:18:59.680 It came across, Well, it comes across Kate. 0:19:01.240 --> 0:19:05.760 That's great. I love that. Well, nothing's changed forty years 0:19:05.760 --> 0:19:07.880 in and I'm still keen as mustards. 0:19:07.880 --> 0:19:11.160 Well that was another question, was is do you still 0:19:11.200 --> 0:19:13.000 love it as much as you did when it first 0:19:13.000 --> 0:19:16.159 all happened for you? I guess you must, otherwise you 0:19:16.359 --> 0:19:18.200 retire and sit at home and do nothing. 0:19:19.200 --> 0:19:21.560 Well, I do have. I think I have a really 0:19:22.160 --> 0:19:26.840 failsafe sort of mechanism in me that if I'm curious 0:19:26.880 --> 0:19:29.960 about something, I'll just I'll pursue it. And you know, 0:19:30.320 --> 0:19:33.399 anyone who lives with me around me knows I won't 0:19:33.400 --> 0:19:35.679 stop until I actually kind of see it through to 0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:38.639 the end, the good, bad and the ugly. And I 0:19:38.680 --> 0:19:41.840 reckon it's kept me going because and I actually see 0:19:41.840 --> 0:19:45.000 that same thing in Jimmy Barnes. He has the same 0:19:45.760 --> 0:19:51.639 inexhaustible curiosity, curiosity towards music and entertainment and sort of talking. 0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:58.080 He's a storyteller. I am too, and we just I 0:19:58.080 --> 0:20:00.480 think we simply know that our role in life to 0:20:00.960 --> 0:20:04.760 bring people together, connect to them by music, and give 0:20:04.800 --> 0:20:09.520 their stories and their memories a bit of a soundtrack. 0:20:09.600 --> 0:20:11.119 That's what I reckon we do. 0:20:11.960 --> 0:20:15.720 Now, Okate, I have to also ask you, like part 0:20:15.720 --> 0:20:22.359 of I'm talking solo career TV stage, it all just 0:20:22.400 --> 0:20:26.399 seems quite natural for you, each of those adjustments in 0:20:26.440 --> 0:20:29.280 your career, well not adjustments, but each of those movements 0:20:29.280 --> 0:20:33.760 in your career. Did you find any of them threatening, terrifying, 0:20:34.000 --> 0:20:36.240 nervous energy or did you just sort of go, yeah, 0:20:36.240 --> 0:20:37.000 I'll give that a crack. 0:20:38.840 --> 0:20:42.359 I too, find television's really freaky. Like I remember the 0:20:42.359 --> 0:20:44.880 first time I went and shot something for Getaway, and 0:20:45.480 --> 0:20:48.120 I did feel a bit like I felt fish out 0:20:48.119 --> 0:20:50.879 of water. And the guy put me in a field 0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:53.480 and then from a long distance camera about two hundred 0:20:53.560 --> 0:20:57.440 meters away, he yelled, okay, action, and you know you've 0:20:57.440 --> 0:20:59.840 got to put this big dialogue as you're walking to 0:20:59.880 --> 0:21:01.720 a camera, and you've got to make it look really natural. 0:21:01.760 --> 0:21:04.480 And I just turned to and I said, what first 0:21:04.520 --> 0:21:08.640 hell was this? Like I don't understand what I didn't understand, 0:21:10.760 --> 0:21:13.280 And because of that, I just I didn't think that 0:21:13.280 --> 0:21:14.960 that was going to be where I ended up like 0:21:15.480 --> 0:21:17.520 it was. It was sort of nice thing to do 0:21:17.600 --> 0:21:20.520 while I was waiting for You know, you go in 0:21:20.560 --> 0:21:23.920 and out of fashion with yourself right over forty years. 0:21:24.359 --> 0:21:26.680 You also lose interest as well, and sometimes you've got 0:21:26.720 --> 0:21:28.800 to lead something to come back and it realize you've 0:21:28.800 --> 0:21:33.439 missed it. And television was just a small moment for 0:21:33.480 --> 0:21:37.960 me to do something interesting and fun. But I didn't 0:21:37.960 --> 0:21:40.000 think I was like, I didn't feel like I could 0:21:40.080 --> 0:21:44.439 be free like I came when I sing, And I realized, like, 0:21:45.240 --> 0:21:47.720 probably the thing I do best in my life is 0:21:47.720 --> 0:21:49.200 seeing an interpret music. 0:21:50.119 --> 0:21:53.880 Kate, I always asked, sing is there and musicians too? 0:21:54.520 --> 0:21:57.640 What was the first record you bought? Do you remember? 0:21:58.160 --> 0:21:58.400 Yeah? 0:21:58.520 --> 0:21:58.760 I do. 0:21:58.960 --> 0:22:02.000 Actually it was Kate Bush? 0:22:02.080 --> 0:22:05.639 Yes, yes, yes, oh, pretty inspirational stuff. 0:22:06.440 --> 0:22:10.760 And I found because of the wonder and the limitless 0:22:11.720 --> 0:22:14.400 composition of her as a person, as a singer, as 0:22:14.400 --> 0:22:18.000 a performing artist, there was just if you ever go 0:22:18.080 --> 0:22:19.920 back and you ever listen to any of her interviews, 0:22:20.040 --> 0:22:23.359 you realize that she was just again she was just 0:22:23.400 --> 0:22:27.840 like this kind of very eccentric person who wasn't trying 0:22:27.880 --> 0:22:30.080 to be like anyone else. And I thought that was 0:22:30.080 --> 0:22:30.600 pretty cool. 0:22:31.320 --> 0:22:33.760 Yeah, I agree, Yeah, very innovative. 0:22:33.960 --> 0:22:36.840 You're both sing in quite a high range. 0:22:37.280 --> 0:22:37.520 Yeah. 0:22:38.400 --> 0:22:41.480 I you usually joke about her that that, you know, 0:22:41.760 --> 0:22:45.680 bats are probably her biggest audience. She probably sings things 0:22:45.720 --> 0:22:48.040 we can't even hear. But you also have a great 0:22:48.160 --> 0:22:51.800 ability to really pitch up. How do you go with that? 0:22:52.000 --> 0:22:54.920 Like Cyndy Lauper was another one who sang in quite 0:22:54.920 --> 0:22:55.760 a high register. 0:22:56.320 --> 0:23:00.720 And I think if the years go over you you 0:23:00.720 --> 0:23:04.680 your voices like like an instrument or read it changes, 0:23:04.760 --> 0:23:08.680 and certainly even like you know, after childbirth and stuff 0:23:08.720 --> 0:23:14.200 where your body's gone through this amazing transformation, all the bellows, 0:23:14.240 --> 0:23:17.439 everything's changed, all the chambers, and then you know, like 0:23:18.200 --> 0:23:20.280 my voice isn't at all like that anymore. Like I 0:23:20.680 --> 0:23:25.119 can do well, for instance, you know the set list, 0:23:25.200 --> 0:23:29.800 I go from anything from early Models stuff which I 0:23:29.840 --> 0:23:32.560 sang on as a kid, But then I can also 0:23:32.680 --> 0:23:38.199 come all the way into singing Rene Gayer or even more. 0:23:40.400 --> 0:23:43.200 I can, I can, I can do it all. In fact, 0:23:43.200 --> 0:23:47.120 I reckon you get a bit more. I want to say, 0:23:47.840 --> 0:23:50.199 there's more depth, and you're kind of more salty. I 0:23:50.359 --> 0:23:53.680 like it. It's deeper, it's a deeper feeling. 0:23:54.000 --> 0:23:56.080 You're not the only thinger to say that that time 0:23:56.160 --> 0:23:57.960 has in the since been kind of the voice given 0:23:58.480 --> 0:24:00.800 a sort of a Melonis that wasn't there when you're 0:24:00.880 --> 0:24:01.840 eighteen or nineteen. 0:24:02.240 --> 0:24:04.560 That's right, I reckon, yes completely. 0:24:05.000 --> 0:24:07.879 Now we time is almost up. We've got to let 0:24:07.920 --> 0:24:12.720 you go shortly. We're loving your chat, but I won't 0:24:12.720 --> 0:24:16.000 pride too much into your private life. But still married 0:24:16.040 --> 0:24:17.280 and a very talented daughter. 0:24:18.240 --> 0:24:18.480 Daughter. 0:24:19.880 --> 0:24:24.920 I have a really have an incredible family, the three 0:24:24.920 --> 0:24:29.119 of us, the three little bears. We're really we have 0:24:29.160 --> 0:24:31.679 a very creative house because she's writing and she's singing. 0:24:31.760 --> 0:24:34.600 She has her own career, and my husband and I 0:24:34.640 --> 0:24:37.439 work together and we've been doing that since COVID and 0:24:37.480 --> 0:24:41.560 we're doing really well with that. In fact, we're touring 0:24:41.560 --> 0:24:44.880 and promoting and doing all of this ourselves, so we're 0:24:44.920 --> 0:24:47.200 not going to be a part. And that's another reason 0:24:47.200 --> 0:24:51.000 why touring is probably not as arduous as it's been 0:24:51.520 --> 0:24:54.320 in my life, because we just get to do it together. 0:24:54.800 --> 0:24:55.960 It's just the best thing. 0:24:56.359 --> 0:24:58.639 Well, I was at a gig. I was at the 0:24:58.720 --> 0:25:01.040 launch of something last year. I can't even remember what 0:25:01.080 --> 0:25:03.000 it was. I got a T shirt out of it. 0:25:03.040 --> 0:25:06.280 But I was a launch of something and Gypsy was 0:25:06.480 --> 0:25:10.919 performing there and she was I had no idea that 0:25:10.960 --> 0:25:13.160 she was related to you, but I was standing there 0:25:13.160 --> 0:25:15.359 with a group of friends and I said, this girl's 0:25:15.480 --> 0:25:18.680 really good and they said, oh, gorgeous, and they said 0:25:18.680 --> 0:25:20.960 that's Kate Sbrano's daughter, and I've got okay, well that's 0:25:21.920 --> 0:25:22.960 the James. 0:25:23.400 --> 0:25:23.600 Yeah. 0:25:23.600 --> 0:25:26.520 Well she's beautiful because she doesn't sound like me, so 0:25:26.560 --> 0:25:30.000 there's like we have. She's got her own distinct character, 0:25:30.080 --> 0:25:32.680 in her own distinct voice, so there's no comparison. And 0:25:33.600 --> 0:25:37.199 she's just Also she's just a really lovely performer. So 0:25:37.240 --> 0:25:39.600 she's yeah, she's just starting and she's on her way. 0:25:39.680 --> 0:25:40.440 She's going to do good. 0:25:40.800 --> 0:25:43.560 Well, it's the Kate Sabrana, a twenty twenty five Australian 0:25:43.640 --> 0:25:46.560 made tour. It's going to be something else. It kicks off, 0:25:46.640 --> 0:25:49.480 I mean as of this week in Bateman's Bay in 0:25:49.520 --> 0:25:51.800 New Southwest, but we've got to speak to Victorian listeners 0:25:51.840 --> 0:25:55.480 in particular of course Kate, and it hits Victoria. Well, 0:25:55.480 --> 0:25:57.840 it will be everywhere but in Aubrey. It'll be in 0:25:57.880 --> 0:26:01.040 Frankston later this month, and in the July, it's going 0:26:01.080 --> 0:26:03.440 to be all over the place, Bendigo and Ring and 0:26:03.520 --> 0:26:06.680 all sorts of places, et cetera.

All one double three six 0:29:07.040 --> 0:29:07.480 ninety three. 0:29:07.880 --> 0:29:11.680 In the meantime, I love the palacco ad that you've 0:29:11.680 --> 0:29:18.120 said in date from the fifties. I guess it's. 0:29:16.120 --> 0:29:18.480 An actually a footy fixture with that with the lady 0:29:18.480 --> 0:29:21.640 on it and do you remember the line that they 0:29:21.680 --> 0:29:30.000 had Palacco. No, not really, she said, Palacco the ment 0:29:30.000 --> 0:29:31.520 shirts that women admire. 0:29:32.560 --> 0:29:36.040 That is that's right. I had the pleasure of meeting 0:29:36.080 --> 0:29:41.400 the son of lack of There was mister Peters, mister Lame, 0:29:42.040 --> 0:29:43.920 and there was their company, and. 0:29:43.960 --> 0:29:48.640 I met the footy fixture and it's got a woman 0:29:48.720 --> 0:29:54.440 on the front. Yes, very funny and Palacco. Incidentally, very 0:29:54.480 --> 0:29:56.880 next door of the Palacco factory was in Richmond, was 0:29:56.920 --> 0:29:58.560 where Scott Palmer lived. 0:29:59.560 --> 0:30:01.760 Is that right next to the factory. 0:30:01.400 --> 0:30:04.400 Next house to the to the factory he lived in 0:30:04.440 --> 0:30:10.440 the late Scott Palmer. Of course, great writer, Keep on 0:30:10.600 --> 0:30:13.200 punch and remember that's right what he used to say. 0:30:13.600 --> 0:30:17.400 The next one is there's a little piece of war propaganda, 0:30:17.400 --> 0:30:20.200 I suppose you'd call it, and that shows a ship 0:30:20.320 --> 0:30:23.960 sinking and it says another victim of Sabo talk like 0:30:24.040 --> 0:30:25.800 I said, sabotage. 0:30:26.680 --> 0:30:29.800 Oh yeah, loose lips and chips. Wasn't that was another 0:30:29.840 --> 0:30:33.280 phrase they used to use, wasn't it, Yes, yes. 0:30:33.120 --> 0:30:37.280 Sebata fort sabbat Savo talk. Next one is a beauty 0:30:37.560 --> 0:30:42.240 and this is from a client who collects it collects 0:30:43.760 --> 0:30:46.920 show cards that are in the shape of the product. 0:30:48.440 --> 0:30:51.520 That's all he collects. Either would if he's got some 0:30:51.720 --> 0:30:55.440 can a little local soft drink company, it would be 0:30:55.480 --> 0:30:57.800 in the shape of the cairn. This one is over 0:30:57.880 --> 0:31:02.760 an osram, which is not from line globes. Yes, and 0:31:02.960 --> 0:31:05.400 it's as you can see, it's in the shape of 0:31:05.480 --> 0:31:08.800 the land. Now, the reason that's quite expensive is because 0:31:09.080 --> 0:31:12.680 it would be very easily damaged. Because if you've got justice, 0:31:13.280 --> 0:31:16.280 it's got a rectangular card, it's show card, it's going 0:31:16.320 --> 0:31:19.720 to be fine. But once you get these unusual shapes, 0:31:20.080 --> 0:31:22.200 of course, it's very easy to get them damaged. To 0:31:22.240 --> 0:31:24.520 find one of those in really night condition, I reason 0:31:24.560 --> 0:31:26.960 you have to pay about seven fifty to get another one. 0:31:27.160 --> 0:31:31.200 Good heaven wow. I love the idea of that, the shapes. 0:31:31.800 --> 0:31:34.760 I thought for a while it might be interesting to 0:31:34.760 --> 0:31:39.600 start a collection of boxes of things like like chocolate confectory, 0:31:39.640 --> 0:31:42.400 like Mars bars and life savers and all that. They 0:31:42.440 --> 0:31:46.880 come in big display boxes and usually there's a perforated edge. 0:31:46.880 --> 0:31:49.280 You can open it up and fold things up so 0:31:49.320 --> 0:31:51.760 it looks good in the shop. I thought those would 0:31:51.800 --> 0:31:53.760 be a good thing to collect. Once upon a time. 0:31:54.120 --> 0:31:58.120 They are, and they also in the earlier time, especially 0:31:58.120 --> 0:32:01.120 in the old department stores, country open stores in particular, 0:32:01.120 --> 0:32:05.920 for some reason, they used to have the items in 0:32:05.960 --> 0:32:08.200 the window, like bars of chocolate and so forth, but 0:32:08.240 --> 0:32:10.760 they were fake. They weren't real chocolate. They had test 0:32:10.800 --> 0:32:14.200 there were cardboard on the inside. There is a very 0:32:14.240 --> 0:32:17.640 example as of a product that's in the shape of 0:32:18.440 --> 0:32:21.520 the item, but it's not it's made of cardboard. So 0:32:21.760 --> 0:32:23.400 they used to do that for quite a few things 0:32:23.400 --> 0:32:26.280 they have. In fact, at one stage I had the 0:32:26.400 --> 0:32:30.840 dog from his master's voice. In fact I still have it. 0:32:30.560 --> 0:32:34.640 It's paper mache and it's up to about your hip 0:32:34.680 --> 0:32:36.640 in height. And of course he was used to listen 0:32:36.680 --> 0:32:42.080 to the little record player. Besides, that's his master's voice. 0:32:42.920 --> 0:32:45.840 That's an example of something that's in the shape again, 0:32:46.040 --> 0:32:47.040 same thing one. 0:32:46.960 --> 0:32:49.480 Double three six nine three. If you have something you 0:32:49.520 --> 0:32:51.360 would like value it one double three six nine three, 0:32:51.480 --> 0:32:56.360 Rick is here, please use his talents. Rick is smoking 0:32:56.440 --> 0:32:59.600 collectibles of that world of smoke and alien I think 0:32:59.600 --> 0:33:02.480 you'll probably call it. Is that still extent? Is it 0:33:02.560 --> 0:33:05.280 still something that people do or is it just become 0:33:05.360 --> 0:33:06.040 a big taboo? 0:33:06.560 --> 0:33:11.960 No, not at all. There are some especially some some 0:33:12.080 --> 0:33:16.400 tins tobacco tins in particular that are really really valuable. 0:33:16.400 --> 0:33:19.120 There was one that came out called the file app 0:33:19.960 --> 0:33:22.440 and it actually had a picture of the racehorse on 0:33:22.480 --> 0:33:24.280 the on the front of the tin and the kind 0:33:24.280 --> 0:33:27.000 of a circular part.

And then beside that was where the 0:35:14.800 --> 0:35:17.360 where you put the age of the cigarette. 0:35:18.840 --> 0:35:21.760 That's right, And what about that? There wasn't our family 0:35:22.239 --> 0:35:25.040 last ray? Were you pressed down in the middle on 0:35:25.120 --> 0:35:30.040 some the butt out of the way. 0:35:30.520 --> 0:35:30.719 Yeah. 0:35:30.760 --> 0:35:34.799 It was kind of like a sewerage. You might say, 0:35:35.719 --> 0:35:38.560 this horrible stuff. You press the button and it all disappears, 0:35:38.880 --> 0:35:42.120 goes down the bottom, you don't see it anymore. And 0:35:42.160 --> 0:35:44.120 then of course to have to fill it up and 0:35:44.120 --> 0:35:46.320 have to empy it all out one of the problems 0:35:46.360 --> 0:35:49.279 with it, And of course were those that were done wartime. 0:35:49.760 --> 0:35:53.080 There are quite a few done around the wartime which 0:35:53.160 --> 0:35:58.480 featured planes aeroplanes, and some of those had astrays on 0:35:58.520 --> 0:36:00.399 them as well, so they were Ye, there's quite a few. 0:36:00.560 --> 0:36:04.120 And I have to say, almost all the people that 0:36:04.239 --> 0:36:10.000 collect what we'll call smoking paraphernalia, almost every every everyone 0:36:10.040 --> 0:36:11.680 I think I've ever met is a non smoker. 0:36:12.400 --> 0:36:15.240 Is that right?

Look I about I'm a first time call and intradition. Yeah, 0:36:40.400 --> 0:36:42.120 that's a good show. I really enjoying it. 0:36:42.440 --> 0:36:42.799 Thank you. 0:36:42.880 --> 0:36:47.479 I bought a Queen's Greatest Hit album around twenty five 0:36:47.520 --> 0:36:51.400 to thirty years ago. It was off a sound engineer 0:36:52.200 --> 0:36:57.000 who worked out of Abbey Road, and well, you know, 0:36:57.200 --> 0:37:01.239 like all his wife basically said, get rid of like 0:37:01.320 --> 0:37:04.600 three hundred albums or enough space for her to at 0:37:04.680 --> 0:37:10.360 least put her clothing into the wardrobe. And yeah, so 0:37:10.400 --> 0:37:15.080 we offloaded him. And look at the time he had 0:37:15.360 --> 0:37:18.680 three hundred up online. He's also sold his passes, so 0:37:18.719 --> 0:37:20.400 they were all genuine and I checked him out at 0:37:20.400 --> 0:37:22.799 the time to make sure the dates matched up, which 0:37:22.840 --> 0:37:26.279 they did. But yeah, I had the four members of 0:37:26.960 --> 0:37:31.400 Queen who signed it and the things. I'd really like 0:37:31.440 --> 0:37:33.880 to stick it up, but I'm too worried to do that. 0:37:34.000 --> 0:37:35.440 I think I'll have to make a copy of it 0:37:35.480 --> 0:37:36.320 and put it away. 0:37:37.920 --> 0:37:40.640 Yeah. Yeah, you certainly don't want it up on a 0:37:40.640 --> 0:37:42.239 wall or anything because it'll fade. 0:37:42.960 --> 0:37:45.000 Yeah, you's got to be very careful about got to 0:37:45.000 --> 0:37:48.720 be careful if you have it, if you have it displayed, Sean, 0:37:48.760 --> 0:37:51.279 you need to do it in a passage way where 0:37:51.280 --> 0:37:54.920 there is very very little light because the light is 0:37:54.960 --> 0:37:59.600 the enemy of signatures. But you've got something pretty special 0:37:59.600 --> 0:38:04.040 there to say. And I've got just the first person 0:38:04.080 --> 0:38:05.640 for you to speak to if you would care to 0:38:05.680 --> 0:38:09.400 give us a call after we get concluded here, and 0:38:09.680 --> 0:38:12.520 we'll give it the number in a minute.

And I 0:43:28.680 --> 0:43:30.800 got such a shock on it. Van that out today. 0:43:30.800 --> 0:43:32.680 It came from because I did hear the interview that 0:43:32.719 --> 0:43:35.640 you both did a few months ago with her, and 0:43:36.000 --> 0:43:39.680 I just don't don't know's She's always been around and 0:43:40.160 --> 0:43:44.239 I'm sure normally will pay tribute to her between after 0:43:44.280 --> 0:43:45.239 eleven o'clock. 0:43:44.920 --> 0:43:47.200 I'm going to also I'm staying on to do Midnight 0:43:47.239 --> 0:43:49.520 to Dawn again filling in for Tony McManus. So I'm 0:43:49.560 --> 0:43:52.560 going to replay that interview at some point tomorrow wonderful, 0:43:52.640 --> 0:43:55.239 and I'll be joined by Gavin Wood at midnight as well. 0:43:55.440 --> 0:43:57.400 Love to talk about MARSI, Well, I'm going to talk 0:43:57.440 --> 0:43:58.520 about Loretta Switt. 0:43:58.880 --> 0:44:02.600 She played my major Margaret hot Lips Hulahan in mash 0:44:02.719 --> 0:44:06.120 for I think from nineteen seventy two to nineteen eighty three, 0:44:06.160 --> 0:44:08.840 and she only missed a couple of episodes. She was 0:44:08.840 --> 0:44:12.640 a stage actress and did things like Mame with Susan Haywood, 0:44:13.040 --> 0:44:17.200 and she played Gooch. And she also did one of 0:44:17.200 --> 0:44:21.640 the Pigeons sisters in the Odd Couple with Don Rickles 0:44:21.680 --> 0:44:25.080 and Ernest Borgnine, playing the Odd Couple that would have 0:44:25.120 --> 0:44:27.279 been in the stage black that would have been played Dad, 0:44:27.760 --> 0:44:29.680 and I would have loved that. So she did a 0:44:29.760 --> 0:44:32.080 lot of stage work before she got into television. She 0:44:32.080 --> 0:44:35.360 worked in a lot of different television shows over the years, 0:44:35.400 --> 0:44:39.279 and I thought she was lovely. So I did interview her. 0:44:39.480 --> 0:44:41.760 I think it's probably about ten years ago or something 0:44:41.840 --> 0:44:45.440 like that. And when the interview finished, we got talking 0:44:45.440 --> 0:44:49.560 and she did a show called ten six Dance Lessons 0:44:49.560 --> 0:44:52.960 in six weeks and she toured that through England through America, 0:44:52.960 --> 0:44:55.200 and she said, I'd love to bring that to Australia. 0:44:55.239 --> 0:44:57.560 Could you help me? So I got onto people like 0:44:57.600 --> 0:44:59.880 Dennis Smith and a few other producers, but I couldn't 0:45:00.080 --> 0:45:02.840 but any enthusiasm. So I said, I'm sorry, Loretta, I 0:45:03.560 --> 0:45:05.560 enthusiasm for Loretta's switch. 0:45:06.520 --> 0:45:08.720 Well you've done well. Yeah, well you've got to invest 0:45:08.760 --> 0:45:12.040 the money first. So then, but anyhow, that's what happened. Asked, 0:45:12.719 --> 0:45:14.160 are you would have put a cuff up some of 0:45:14.160 --> 0:45:16.480 the Owen's fortune that Andrew was talking about. 0:45:16.640 --> 0:45:20.000 Yeah, he might pawn the Owen's emeralds. Have you seen them? 0:45:20.480 --> 0:45:23.200 It's one of the greatest collections of emeralds in the world. 0:45:23.480 --> 0:45:25.160 They're famous in lily Dale. 0:45:25.440 --> 0:45:27.279 Oh, that would be marvelous if you could do all the. 0:45:27.239 --> 0:45:29.640 Lily Dale thrills to missus. Owen's going down the street 0:45:29.680 --> 0:45:32.279 for shopping with a little string bag of those emerald rings. 0:45:32.320 --> 0:45:35.360 That's exactly had Loretta. 0:45:35.000 --> 0:45:38.239 Switch won two Emmy Awards for Mash. Yes, and I 0:45:38.760 --> 0:45:42.400 love it. It's on Jim episodes. They've taken the episodes 0:45:42.400 --> 0:45:44.359 and they've blown them up on the big screen, so 0:45:44.360 --> 0:45:46.480 there's no lines on side and all that sort of 0:45:46.560 --> 0:45:49.920 the four four point three, the old format, and they 0:45:49.960 --> 0:45:53.000 look terrific. They's like us watching it all over again. 0:45:53.040 --> 0:45:55.040 I just love the show. It was a great show. 0:45:55.080 --> 0:45:59.040 I watched two clips today of Loretta as Margaret Yes 0:45:59.239 --> 0:46:01.640 on YouTube. I looked for my two favorite clips and 0:46:01.680 --> 0:46:05.240 I found them. The one where she has an argument 0:46:05.280 --> 0:46:08.320 with the nurses because they never invited her to anything, 0:46:08.719 --> 0:46:11.320 and she played that scene so beautifully. We have tears 0:46:11.320 --> 0:46:13.319 and a whole lot. And the other one when the 0:46:13.400 --> 0:46:17.759 dog dies and she loses it over that time.

She was fabulous. 0:46:20.840 --> 0:46:25.560 Anyhow, I did speak to Lauta Switch about the closing 0:46:25.680 --> 0:46:28.839 or the ending of Mash in nineteen eighty three. Well, 0:46:28.880 --> 0:46:31.759 you won two Emmy Awards, which is a magnificent achievement. 0:46:31.920 --> 0:46:35.520 And that final episode watched by more than he They 0:46:35.560 --> 0:46:38.000 say more than one hundred and twenty million people, which 0:46:38.040 --> 0:46:41.600 is a massive viewing audience. And I believe you all 0:46:41.640 --> 0:46:45.840 went and watched the film of that over a party 0:46:46.200 --> 0:46:47.160 when it concluded. 0:46:47.560 --> 0:46:52.800 I'm trying to remember if we were actually seeing it together. 0:46:53.920 --> 0:46:55.800 We spent so much time together. 0:46:56.880 --> 0:46:59.520 We know some stuff that you as. 0:46:59.400 --> 0:47:01.279 An audience couldn't possibly know. 0:47:01.400 --> 0:47:03.600 But there was a raging. 0:47:03.360 --> 0:47:07.719 Fire over at where we were planning to shoot much 0:47:07.719 --> 0:47:12.799 of the much of the final episode, and so we 0:47:12.920 --> 0:47:18.440 had to rearrange our schedule. And in point of fact, 0:47:19.080 --> 0:47:23.680 when we wrapped, when we finished, we were wrapping a 0:47:23.719 --> 0:47:26.480 different show. We were not. We were not wrapping up 0:47:26.680 --> 0:47:28.240 on Goodbye, Farewell and Amen. 0:47:29.400 --> 0:47:32.960 So it was so you know, we we knew all that, 0:47:33.080 --> 0:47:40.359 but the weeks, the weeks before our imminent closing, we 0:47:40.360 --> 0:47:42.400 were always together. 0:47:42.760 --> 0:47:43.839 It was bittersweet. 0:47:45.120 --> 0:47:48.320 Yeah, so they yeah, resting place.

It was very hot and I'm not supposed 0:54:51.800 --> 0:54:52.960 to go out in the sun. I got such a 0:54:53.000 --> 0:54:59.320 palekin and everything that that was a problem. Uh, A 0:54:59.400 --> 0:55:04.600 bunch of mad people. Really I liked. I liked everyone. 0:55:05.120 --> 0:55:09.920 They were all funny. But they all would come to 0:55:09.960 --> 0:55:12.760 me and tell me how everybody else was doing something wrong, 0:55:12.800 --> 0:55:16.239 but they had it right. And I don't know why 0:55:16.280 --> 0:55:21.480 they came to me, but Milton would come, and you know, 0:55:22.040 --> 0:55:27.480 it was very strange. They were competitive, but then I 0:55:27.560 --> 0:55:29.640 must say a nice way. No one really got mad 0:55:29.719 --> 0:55:30.600 or angry or anything. 0:55:40.040 --> 0:55:41.399 But she was terrific, wasn't she. 0:55:41.640 --> 0:55:44.600 Very pretty girl? Yes, and I remember quite fondly, not 0:55:44.840 --> 0:55:47.359 that she was a huge star, but she she did 0:55:47.480 --> 0:55:48.400 make any admistration. 0:55:48.600 --> 0:55:50.960 Yes, And I reckon Ethel Murmur would have stirred up 0:55:50.960 --> 0:55:53.320 that cast because she was pretty tough, the Ethels she was. 0:55:53.520 --> 0:55:58.680 Yes, she was tough. Yes, absolutely quick Quiz time, Kevin 0:55:58.760 --> 0:56:01.320 quick quiz boys, Are you ready? Yes? 0:56:01.880 --> 0:56:05.600 Gun Smoke was a popular television series or western in 0:56:05.680 --> 0:56:10.160 nineteen sixty three. It starred James RNs as Marshall Matt Dillon. 0:56:11.200 --> 0:56:13.840 What was the name of the town where the series 0:56:13.920 --> 0:56:21.000 was set. Was it a Dodge City, B, Tombstone, C, 0:56:21.920 --> 0:56:28.520 Virginia City or D Santa Fe. Where was the series 0:56:28.600 --> 0:56:31.840 Gun Smoke sets in that town that they were throughout 0:56:31.840 --> 0:56:34.320 the whole series for about ten seasons or something. 0:56:35.520 --> 0:56:37.839 Well, I have no idea because I am too young 0:56:37.920 --> 0:56:38.440 to remember. 0:56:38.760 --> 0:56:42.600 I'm going to say Santa Fe. Be my guess, Santa Fe. 0:56:42.680 --> 0:56:45.239 I think it's that Western fielder like. I don't really 0:56:45.280 --> 0:56:47.279 know the answer at all. No, No, I saw the 0:56:47.280 --> 0:56:48.839 show a couple of times. It was about it. 0:56:49.480 --> 0:56:50.080 I watched it all. 0:56:50.760 --> 0:56:52.160 I know it was a hugely popular show. 0:56:52.200 --> 0:56:56.080 Mister that's remember, and mister Dillon, that's going to Delan. 0:56:56.440 --> 0:57:04.440 I'm leaning toward Tombstone. Tombstone could a sound sort of cartoony, and. 0:57:03.480 --> 0:57:06.400 I just I'm going to agree with Simon on Tombstone 0:57:06.400 --> 0:57:08.920 because I just think it's a great name in town 0:57:09.080 --> 0:57:12.839 and especially for a series like there was another TV series. 0:57:12.480 --> 0:57:19.640 Called Tombstone Territory of Moonstone Territory. 0:57:20.520 --> 0:57:24.840 Up back where I want to be. 0:57:26.360 --> 0:57:27.000 And that was it. 0:57:27.120 --> 0:57:28.720 So I don't think you're going to be right, because 0:57:28.720 --> 0:57:32.000 they wouldn't have to. 0:57:33.920 --> 0:57:35.400 Anything is possible in Hollywood. 0:57:35.760 --> 0:57:42.000 Well I'm going to leave it in Okay, all right, 0:57:42.160 --> 0:57:45.440 we already Ben and I are both going Tombstone, Andrews 0:57:45.440 --> 0:57:46.240 going Santa Fe. 0:57:46.480 --> 0:57:53.240 Okay, Well, it wasn't Virginia City, so that one was wrong. Sadly, Andrew, 0:57:53.280 --> 0:57:57.720 it wasn't Santa Fe. And Simon and Ben I had 0:57:57.720 --> 0:58:01.240 to break this news to you and it wasn't, so 0:58:01.560 --> 0:58:05.960 no one got it. It was Dodge City, Dodge City. 0:58:06.000 --> 0:58:08.160 A lot of things happened in Dodge see that's right. 0:58:09.080 --> 0:58:12.240 And later on, of course it became famous for making cars. 0:58:12.480 --> 0:58:14.760 Yes, of course, as you do. 0:58:15.600 --> 0:58:19.520 Wonderful Now television should we get into television?

And I 1:05:45.200 --> 1:05:49.520 spoke to Pee Weee Wilson from the Delltones about Johnny O'Keeffe. 1:05:58.800 --> 1:06:13.840 I'm ever since we met Darling, I've been keeping school. 1:06:16.080 --> 1:06:18.240 Well, it was a fabulous hero when you when you 1:06:18.320 --> 1:06:21.480 did those League Wooden shows. I can still see the 1:06:21.600 --> 1:06:24.160 Dell Tones and Johnny o'keeff on stage in my memory. 1:06:24.240 --> 1:06:26.440 But what are your memories of working with Johnny o'kings. 1:06:26.920 --> 1:06:30.760 Well, he was a most interesting character of because as 1:06:30.840 --> 1:06:33.520 we're in hindsight we look back on his on his 1:06:34.160 --> 1:06:37.360 relatively short career in the sense that he truly was 1:06:37.440 --> 1:06:39.600 a dynamic performer and there was something that all of 1:06:39.720 --> 1:06:42.680 us in the in the up and coming artists in 1:06:42.720 --> 1:06:45.480 that early period, we're we're looking towards Johnny Keith as 1:06:45.520 --> 1:06:48.840 a mentor and certainly he had a natural stagecraft. We 1:06:48.960 --> 1:06:50.840 never ever viewed him as being one of the great 1:06:50.920 --> 1:06:54.600 singers of of of the business, but certainly had all 1:06:54.640 --> 1:06:56.400 other aspects going. And of course the one thing that 1:06:56.400 --> 1:06:58.280 we all admired abou about him most was it was 1:06:58.720 --> 1:06:59.880 his commitment to the business. 1:07:34.440 --> 1:07:37.840 I love pee Weee Wilson just adore me too.

We've got a minute to 1:14:56.320 --> 1:14:58.280 have a look at the films of nineteen sixty three, 1:14:58.320 --> 1:14:59.960 please Kevin, Well, there was a big one came out. 1:15:00.200 --> 1:15:02.800 I can I mention I'm watching it came from Out 1:15:02.800 --> 1:15:05.719 of Space, which is on Foxtelle or Max whatever it's called. 1:15:05.880 --> 1:15:09.680 Yeah, and Richard Carlson, and it's terrific. 1:15:09.840 --> 1:15:12.360 Black and white from nineteen fifty three and I'm absorbed 1:15:12.400 --> 1:15:12.600 with it. 1:15:12.760 --> 1:15:15.639 It's really really a space monster alien movie. 1:15:15.840 --> 1:15:17.479 Yeah, yeah, it came from out of space. 1:15:18.280 --> 1:15:20.720 Did Richard Carson ever make an A grade movie? I 1:15:20.840 --> 1:15:23.560 know everything he made at titles. 1:15:23.240 --> 1:15:25.880 Like that, and I discovered something. I say this very quickly. 1:15:26.120 --> 1:15:28.400 I thought it was in The Creature from Black Lagoon. 1:15:28.720 --> 1:15:30.960 But at the Grand in Cobourg, there's a scene in 1:15:31.040 --> 1:15:34.439 a film where the Richard Carlson standing on screen and 1:15:34.600 --> 1:15:36.880 somebody puts their hand out from the left hand side 1:15:36.880 --> 1:15:38.600 of screen and taps him on the shoulder, and we 1:15:38.680 --> 1:15:42.280 all went, well, it was in It came from out 1:15:42.320 --> 1:15:46.920 of space. And I jumped up on the couch. Took 1:15:46.960 --> 1:15:47.519 me right back. 1:15:47.560 --> 1:15:50.759 It did to the he's living alone. He's very nervous 1:15:50.800 --> 1:15:52.720 in the house. I am, I am, I am, but 1:15:52.840 --> 1:15:53.960 it's a bit of a scaredy cat. 1:15:54.160 --> 1:15:56.800 Yeah, I've got the dog to protect me. 1:15:57.600 --> 1:15:58.960 With the light on the fridge open. 1:15:59.040 --> 1:16:01.599 It's all Missy Birds came out of nineteen sixty three, 1:16:01.640 --> 1:16:06.120 the Alfred Hitchcock film with Tippy Hedron. Was it Tippy Hedron? 1:16:06.240 --> 1:16:09.479 And we had Rod Tayler, Jessica Tandy you or big cast. 1:16:09.760 --> 1:16:12.960 It was a terrific movie, as most of Hitchcock's films 1:16:13.000 --> 1:16:16.040 were scary. But I spoke to Tippy Hedron about the birds. 1:16:16.880 --> 1:16:18.639 I'd like to go to the scene in the attic 1:16:18.720 --> 1:16:20.639 where they threw all those birds at you when. 1:16:20.479 --> 1:16:21.920 You well, I don't ever want to go there. 1:16:22.320 --> 1:16:23.240 I bet you don't. 1:16:24.400 --> 1:16:27.920 But that was pretty traumatic for a first film. 1:16:27.680 --> 1:16:29.880 To be in a scene like that, you know what? 1:16:30.080 --> 1:16:32.519 What you know? When I when I was reading the script, 1:16:32.640 --> 1:16:35.920 I said, you know how how I couldn't ask? I mean, 1:16:35.960 --> 1:16:38.920 how are you going to do this scene? And he said, oh, 1:16:39.000 --> 1:16:44.439 don't worry, We're going to use mechanical birds. Fine, no problem. 1:16:45.960 --> 1:16:48.080 Actually it was a very kind thing he did. However, 1:16:48.160 --> 1:16:51.280 there was no intention of using mechanical birds, and I 1:16:51.400 --> 1:16:54.080 didn't know about the real ones until the morning we 1:16:54.160 --> 1:16:58.479 were to start filming that scene. And I walked out 1:16:58.520 --> 1:17:01.040 onto the set and there was a cage built around 1:17:01.120 --> 1:17:05.759 that door that I walk in, with three huge boxes 1:17:05.840 --> 1:17:10.479 of ravens and seagulls and a few pigeons thrown in 1:17:10.680 --> 1:17:14.800 and and there were three pop men who had great 1:17:14.840 --> 1:17:19.760 big gauntlets up to their shoulders and which they alternately 1:17:19.880 --> 1:17:24.240 started hurling at me. And it took five days to 1:17:24.360 --> 1:17:25.000 do that scene. 1:17:25.640 --> 1:17:26.840 Were you very brave to be? 1:17:26.920 --> 1:17:28.760 That's all I can say, Gray, That's what That's what 1:17:28.920 --> 1:17:31.040 Carrie Grant said.

You haven't made lists of of 1:29:11.960 --> 1:29:14.320 of what all the montages are that because this is 1:29:14.400 --> 1:29:16.240 the third time round we've done the montages. 1:29:17.960 --> 1:29:19.720 I think you've got to change the montages. Well, I 1:29:19.760 --> 1:29:22.200 think there's got to be another. I've got an idea 1:29:22.800 --> 1:29:24.000 or one or two ideas about that. 1:29:24.840 --> 1:29:28.120 No not, We'll have a production meeting. 1:29:28.439 --> 1:29:29.800 Oh yeah, midnight.

And then, as Andrew mentioned at the 1:29:35.880 --> 1:29:38.600 top of the are very sadly we have lost a 1:29:38.720 --> 1:29:42.000 great a great performer, and another great performer will be 1:29:42.040 --> 1:29:43.040 paying tribute after this. 1:29:43.800 --> 1:29:46.040 It's nineteen past eleven on Remember when a bit of 1:29:46.080 --> 1:29:48.719 a sad time for us to light a year, Remember 1:29:48.720 --> 1:29:52.040 when some particularly those listening of course in Melbourne, because 1:29:52.479 --> 1:29:56.920 we lost Marcy Jones just last night, and she was 1:29:56.960 --> 1:29:58.880 so much a part of the Melbourne music scene for 1:29:59.120 --> 1:30:01.400 so many years with Marsy and the Cookies, and of 1:30:01.439 --> 1:30:04.560 course as a solo actually tour overseas. She's sang on 1:30:04.720 --> 1:30:07.439 just about every TV show and one of her great mentors, 1:30:07.479 --> 1:30:10.280 and one of her great friends along the journey was 1:30:10.320 --> 1:30:12.920 a man we speak to next normally wrote, very good evening, 1:30:12.960 --> 1:30:15.280 and thank you for making time normally a very emotional 1:30:15.360 --> 1:30:15.720 time for you. 1:30:16.680 --> 1:30:19.920 Thanks for mass fellows. It's I wish I could say 1:30:19.960 --> 1:30:22.760 it was a pleasure. It's just such a and to 1:30:22.840 --> 1:30:26.200 talk to you guys as always is. But you know, 1:30:26.280 --> 1:30:28.439 I wish none of us had to deal with these 1:30:28.560 --> 1:30:32.160 sorts of situations. It's a bit heartbreaking, I guess to 1:30:32.240 --> 1:30:32.800 all of us. 1:30:34.120 --> 1:30:37.040 It is, of course, but especially to you normal because 1:30:37.080 --> 1:30:39.479 it's not not like you guys met up in your 1:30:39.560 --> 1:30:42.759 fifties or something and developed a friendship and a reunion 1:30:42.880 --> 1:30:46.080 console or something. How long How long ago did you 1:30:46.200 --> 1:30:48.360 actually meet Marcy for the first time. 1:30:49.000 --> 1:30:53.120 Well, I'm seventy eight and I think I was fourteen 1:30:53.200 --> 1:30:56.559 when I first met mars. Yeah, she at that stage 1:30:56.720 --> 1:31:01.479 was singing at Preston Town Hall and I, or a 1:31:01.520 --> 1:31:05.639 couple of couple of years earlier, I started singing there 1:31:05.760 --> 1:31:10.680 and with our paths crossed, and then she recorded for 1:31:11.400 --> 1:31:16.320 Sunshine Records before the Playboys and me. She recorded a 1:31:16.439 --> 1:31:20.280 song called Quiet, a really nice song, but unfortunately it 1:31:20.400 --> 1:31:26.920 didn't quite make it and then when we had it 1:31:27.040 --> 1:31:31.439 an't necessarily so we went on tour, but we we 1:31:32.479 --> 1:31:36.760 Marcy and I suppose a few other singers around at 1:31:36.800 --> 1:31:41.959 the same time were singing regularly advances together in Melbourne, 1:31:42.360 --> 1:31:47.720 but the package was generally norm Ro Marcy Jones and 1:31:47.800 --> 1:31:53.679 the Playboys, so it was a nice, rounded, rounded off package. 1:31:53.880 --> 1:31:58.000 And we played every town with a population of more 1:31:58.080 --> 1:32:02.200 than two thousand, and some with populations of less, and well, 1:32:02.840 --> 1:32:06.479 I think at the time Charlton in Central Victoria only 1:32:06.600 --> 1:32:09.640 had only had a population of a thousand. We got 1:32:09.760 --> 1:32:10.880 six hundred kids in me. 1:32:12.960 --> 1:32:15.120 Marvelous so and Marcy. 1:32:15.960 --> 1:32:21.040 Marcy was really really funny. The girls will be crawling 1:32:21.120 --> 1:32:25.639 out for me and for Peter Doyle, who was also 1:32:26.800 --> 1:32:31.639 gaining some traction funnily, and the kids, the girls were 1:32:31.680 --> 1:32:33.960 all crawling out for us. And she'd stand up and say, 1:32:34.120 --> 1:32:40.360 now listen, girls, now listen. I'm on first and I'm 1:32:40.400 --> 1:32:42.560 going to sing all of my songs and you're not 1:32:42.640 --> 1:32:45.880 going to see these boys until I've finished, so you 1:32:46.080 --> 1:32:48.280 might as well just put up with it with me. 1:32:49.520 --> 1:32:50.280 And she had that. 1:32:52.040 --> 1:32:55.560 Sort of powerful presence right from that time on, and 1:32:57.240 --> 1:33:03.559 in fact, only two weeks ago I had the lovely 1:33:05.160 --> 1:33:09.960 experience of interviewing Mass and the go set lunch that 1:33:10.120 --> 1:33:13.720 we have on the Gold Coast once a month, and 1:33:13.880 --> 1:33:18.320 she was the person of interest, if you like, and 1:33:19.240 --> 1:33:21.800 a lot of people said it was the funniest and 1:33:21.960 --> 1:33:30.640 the most entertaining interview that that they'd seen at that 1:33:30.840 --> 1:33:38.040 function ever, And I guess it was because I knew 1:33:38.160 --> 1:33:41.519 all her backstories, and when she went on to the 1:33:41.560 --> 1:33:47.120 ones that couldn't mention, I just kept changing the subject, nor. 1:33:47.080 --> 1:33:49.080 Meal I don't. It's not a not a secret. You 1:33:49.160 --> 1:33:51.599 were in a relationship with Marsia at one particular point, 1:33:52.120 --> 1:33:55.680 and it was at that time you were called up 1:33:55.720 --> 1:33:57.040 and went to Vietnam, wasn't it. 1:33:57.760 --> 1:34:01.760 Yeah, that's right. In fact that stage we were engaged, 1:34:01.880 --> 1:34:05.000 we were going to get married. I went off to Vietnam, 1:34:05.120 --> 1:34:09.000 she went off to England, and I guess we sort 1:34:09.000 --> 1:34:12.960 of drifted apart during that period of time, but we 1:34:13.080 --> 1:34:17.919 stayed friends full life. I saw her in the hospital 1:34:19.040 --> 1:34:23.680 last week, and it was in fact last Sunday, and 1:34:24.000 --> 1:34:27.960 we just thought that, well, what she's dealing with is 1:34:28.040 --> 1:34:31.400 pretty pretty hard. At that stage, she hadn't been diagnosed 1:34:31.439 --> 1:34:36.439 with the leukemia, which eventually I guess took a life. 1:34:36.560 --> 1:34:37.720 But she. 1:34:39.439 --> 1:34:44.120 Was in good spirits, nevertheless obviously not feeling very well. 1:34:45.080 --> 1:34:49.320 And it was quite a It was quite a shock 1:34:49.680 --> 1:34:54.680 when Murray phoned me last night and said, Marcy has 1:34:54.800 --> 1:34:59.439 just left the building. And really, for an entertainer to 1:34:59.560 --> 1:35:03.680 be masters just leaving the building, I think that's the 1:35:03.720 --> 1:35:07.240 way that all of any of us have trod the boards, 1:35:07.280 --> 1:35:07.680 as it were. 1:35:08.120 --> 1:35:08.800 Would like to. 1:35:08.840 --> 1:35:12.080 Say, you know, our last farewell's. 1:35:12.240 --> 1:35:15.360 It is a beautiful expression, isn't it In terms of 1:35:16.640 --> 1:35:19.519 entertainers when they pass that, it's very fitting. 1:35:20.400 --> 1:35:20.599 Yeah. 1:35:21.520 --> 1:35:25.200 And Mass, you know, they sail like you know, you 1:35:25.320 --> 1:35:26.960 put your hand in a bucket of water. When you 1:35:27.000 --> 1:35:29.640 pull it out, what's left? Well, I think if you 1:35:29.840 --> 1:35:31.439 if you put Mass in a bucket of water, it 1:35:31.479 --> 1:35:33.439 pulled it out, you leave it a dirty, big hole 1:35:33.600 --> 1:35:38.080 that would never ever be filled. Her personality was much 1:35:38.160 --> 1:35:41.360 greater than the sum of of all the different parts 1:35:42.400 --> 1:35:42.720 she was. 1:35:43.080 --> 1:35:46.280 She lit up the room normally. How much family? What 1:35:46.840 --> 1:35:49.920 family did she have? I'm not that familiar with her 1:35:49.960 --> 1:35:51.439 personal life, No. 1:35:51.600 --> 1:35:51.920 She was. 1:35:52.439 --> 1:35:58.160 She was an only child of George and Wynny. She 1:35:58.280 --> 1:36:02.360 grew up just at the bottom of the Station Street 1:36:02.560 --> 1:36:07.000 in box Hill, where Station Street and Intersex with tram 1:36:07.120 --> 1:36:12.200 road and just it's now the next house along from 1:36:12.280 --> 1:36:16.120 the freeway, and it was built by George. He was 1:36:16.160 --> 1:36:20.800 a builder and he was a lovely gentleman and Wynn 1:36:20.960 --> 1:36:25.680 was a sweet lady, you know. And I think they 1:36:25.760 --> 1:36:29.280 were able to give Marcel the opportunities that she wanted, 1:36:29.439 --> 1:36:32.960 and the big opportunity for her was to be a singer. 1:36:33.120 --> 1:36:36.160 That's what she wanted, and she learned very well. She 1:36:36.280 --> 1:36:40.280 was a very fine singer, and later in later years 1:36:40.360 --> 1:36:42.680 she became a very good songwriter as well. 1:36:43.360 --> 1:36:46.760 Yeah, very musically talented. I only well as a kid. 1:36:46.800 --> 1:36:49.360 I only knew as a singing the latest pop songs. 1:36:49.640 --> 1:36:51.639 But I didn't realize she had a great ballad voice 1:36:51.640 --> 1:36:52.439 as well too. 1:36:52.880 --> 1:36:56.439 Normally, yeah, oh yeah, she could sing any of the 1:36:56.520 --> 1:37:00.280 big ballads of the day, from Silly Black and and 1:37:00.400 --> 1:37:03.360 Dusty Springfield and Dian Warwick. She would do all of 1:37:03.439 --> 1:37:07.400 those songs. But I found a song by Patti LaBelle 1:37:07.439 --> 1:37:10.360 when I was in England, a version of Somewhere Over 1:37:10.400 --> 1:37:13.680 the Rainbow, which made the hair stand up on the 1:37:13.720 --> 1:37:15.800 back of my neck, and I sent it to her 1:37:15.840 --> 1:37:17.960 and I said, haven't listened to this? I think you 1:37:18.040 --> 1:37:22.320 and the girls should you could do a fantastic version 1:37:22.360 --> 1:37:27.280 of it, And of course they did, and they actually met. 1:37:27.439 --> 1:37:30.200 They were on a bill with Patti LaBelle and the 1:37:30.240 --> 1:37:38.040 Bluebells and they were talking about the song, and I think, 1:37:38.439 --> 1:37:43.160 as far as I can remember, they I think Patti 1:37:43.240 --> 1:37:49.400 Labella actually heard Marcy sing this arrangement and gave them, 1:37:49.880 --> 1:37:53.880 gave the girls a wonderful compliment. But it wasn't just 1:37:53.960 --> 1:38:00.559 Patti LaBelle. She toured with Cliff Richard extensively. She toured 1:38:00.600 --> 1:38:04.599 with Jean Pitney, and of course most of the time 1:38:04.680 --> 1:38:09.759 with the Cookies, who were a very fine sister trio. 1:38:10.760 --> 1:38:16.719 And you know, in history, one of the great shames, 1:38:17.120 --> 1:38:19.400 I suppose, is that they never really had a big 1:38:19.560 --> 1:38:22.280 number one record, because I think that would have been 1:38:22.760 --> 1:38:24.200 the duel in the Crown for them. 1:38:25.680 --> 1:38:30.320 You mentioned the Cookies, Beverly, Margaret, and Wendy. Have you 1:38:30.680 --> 1:38:34.080 spoken to any of them in the last forty eight 1:38:34.200 --> 1:38:35.439 hours or Yeah. 1:38:35.560 --> 1:38:39.639 I spoke to Maggie not long after I heard from Murray, 1:38:39.720 --> 1:38:47.320 and she already had she'd heard from Murray and she 1:38:47.479 --> 1:38:50.640 was passing it on to the girls. Of course, you know, 1:38:51.520 --> 1:38:54.680 it went around like wildfire. I mean, I don't know 1:38:55.280 --> 1:38:58.720 where too many people know. But we've got this sort 1:38:58.720 --> 1:39:01.679 of it's almost like a fan that get together every 1:39:01.760 --> 1:39:04.519 Thursday night at a suburban hotel and every time I'm 1:39:04.560 --> 1:39:07.479 in Melbourne, I go to this dinner where we go 1:39:07.600 --> 1:39:10.840 and have a lovely dinner in a hotel restaurant and 1:39:11.439 --> 1:39:14.439 we talk about what we're doing today, what we're going 1:39:14.479 --> 1:39:17.080 to be doing tomorrow, but moreover, what we what we've 1:39:17.160 --> 1:39:20.839 done in the past, and any of the the incant 1:39:21.120 --> 1:39:25.439 instances that we might have missed of each other's life. 1:39:25.560 --> 1:39:28.880 So we were right, okay, it's sort of it's it's 1:39:29.160 --> 1:39:29.759 like a family. 1:39:30.560 --> 1:39:33.800 This is the people those artists involved with the Go 1:39:34.000 --> 1:39:37.200 Show and TV like that that you're talking about normally. 1:39:36.920 --> 1:39:42.639 Are you, yes, and people from people musicians.
