13
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:37,880
Speaker 2: into getting the right combination of it wouldn't go out,

14
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:39,639
Speaker 2: and I'm really happy with the way it's turned out.

15
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 1: I think it's a great combination. Actually, the tour this

16
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,879
Speaker 1: time is taking in a lot of regional areas. What

17
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,360
Speaker 1: is the most remote gig you've ever performed.

18
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 2: Paul well Holidays. I played at Kalkarinji two weeks ago

19
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 2: for the Freedom Day Festival. Jack Olnji's about six hours

20
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 2: drive from from the Northern Territory is Okay, the cattle country,

21
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 2: and that's they have a festival there every year to

22
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 2: commemorate the walk off Wayfield Station by Aboriginal stockmen and

23
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,119
Speaker 2: their families, the Greenia people in nineteen sixty six, story

24
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 2: of the song from the Little Things Big Things Grow.

25
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 3: Yes, I think they have.

26
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 2: They have a little festival there every year and they

27
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 2: do a part of part of commemorate the walk off.

28
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 2: They do, they do part of the walk and they

29
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 2: have bands. So I've been out there just the third

30
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 2: time I've been there over the years. A great trip.

31
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,119
Speaker 2: It's a long way to get there, A long way.

32
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 3: What an incredible reward. That is probably a rough road. Yeah,

33
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 3: you need the right tires, but whatever. Reward that location

34
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 3: for a gig poll.

35
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really really beautiful country.

36
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 3: Hey, Paul Lesard, I grew up in We're of a

37
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 3: generation where it was a bit of the sound of

38
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 3: the seekers in our lives as little East And I

39
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 3: know that you're at the State Memorial recently. What a

40
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,919
Speaker 3: legacy she leaves and what a beautiful voice.

41
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, You've been thinking about it a lot lately especially.

42
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 2: It was a really great, great send off. I've been

43
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 2: playing playing around some of those songs around the house,

44
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 2: some of the secret songs when the carnival is over. Yeah,

45
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 2: I think that's I think that's my favorite morning gen

46
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 2: writ Yeah, I.

47
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: Like that one. Now, of course, most people see you

48
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 1: as one of Australia's most prolific songwriters, Paul Kelly. Do

49
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: any budding songwriters listening Do you have any tips for them?

50
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 2: Not? Not really, not really, No, I think a lot.

51
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 2: I think people write songs in all different ways. I

52
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 2: don't think there's well, I don't think there's in a

53
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 2: formula or special way to go about it, you know.

54
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 2: I think for me, songwriting is a lot of the

55
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 2: time nothing happens and then suddenly something happened. So but

56
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,079
Speaker 2: it does. It doesn't happen unless you go to the instrument.

57
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 2: So I've got a piano and guitar and just fall around.

58
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 2: Something happens, but you don't know. It's not like you

59
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 2: can go to work each day say today I'm going

60
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 2: to write a song. Yeah, I mean you can go

61
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:06,079
Speaker 2: to work. It doesn't mean depends the day and you don't.

62
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,359
Speaker 2: You don't have a song. You might just be playing

63
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,359
Speaker 2: you know, it's just been playing around making making some music,

64
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 2: or you're another good way that sort of when you're stuck.

65
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 2: I think sometimes I haven't written a song for I

66
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,839
Speaker 2: was just go back to learning other people's songs. That's

67
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,399
Speaker 2: something I do all the all the time. So yeah,

68
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 2: I learned. I learned when the carnival is over yesterday,

69
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 2: work at the Chords family could be for me to

70
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 2: sing it in and so that's that's sort of part

71
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 2: of it, you know, everyday thing that I do.

72
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, it always firstalated to me. Paul. You know that

73
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 3: Brital Building in New York and like some Neil Diamond

74
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 3: and Jerry Goffin and Carol King go in as a

75
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 3: job and write songs and it sounds a bit pork

76
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 3: sausage factory.

77
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's great. I mean that, you know, I would

78
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 2: love to be able to sort of be part part

79
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 2: of that. I think that you know that was they

80
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 2: just turned up and went to work. I think it

81
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 2: was something about, you know, I had the often were

82
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 2: in change, so that they always had someone to bounce off. Yeah,

83
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 2: but I'm sure they had their days when they turned

84
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 2: up there and there's nothing happened, of course, but that's

85
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 2: the thing they turned up. I think that's probably there's

86
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 2: any advice to any any writer, turn up, turn up

87
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 2: to your desk, turn up to your instrument just turn up.

88
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 1: Well, I've heard recently a few stories about making Gravy

89
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: being made into a what was a TV show or

90
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: a movie or something like that? Is that true? Is

91
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 1: it actually happening?

92
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 2: Yes, it is. People got the right, Yeah, Megan Washington

93
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 2: and their husband next the rights, and they've had a

94
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 2: process a couple of years ago for the right to

95
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,919
Speaker 2: make a movie. Yeah, And you know, it's just moving along,

96
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 2: moving along slowly as as often as movies do. They've

97
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 2: got they haven't got a strip yet, but they've got

98
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 2: They seem to have a pretty good team around them.

99
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 2: So we're just going to step by step. But they're

100
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 2: hoping to shoot next year.

101
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 3: They often amble along those projects, aren't they. Usually the

102
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 3: word funding pops up regularly.

103
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'd like to ask you a question.
