Speaker 6: No, far from it.

17
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 5: We just made a record purely to amuse ourselves, and

00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,040

Speaker 5: the time of our lives.

22
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 3: I think you were enjoying yourself when you were, you know,

23
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,160
Speaker 3: thinking about the title and the album cover and so on,

24
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,759
Speaker 3: the title, of course, is taken from a three Stooges

25
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 3: short film. The album cover is a very one million.

26
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 4: Years b C.

27
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 3: But tell me what is this I hear about Green

28
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 3: Acres influencing the album.

29
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 4: Well, we we're very.

30
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 5: Fans of like the sitcoms, especially about Back Then. We

31
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 5: write a lot of songs ins by by that. And

32
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,399
Speaker 5: there's you know, the song inspired by Get Smart, for example,

33
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 5: in the Echo Chamber inspired by the Groovy Guru of course,

34
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 5: you know wet the Guru part of that. Basically, we

35
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 5: dedicate the album to a bunch of different people, and

36
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 5: one of them was Arnold Zippel that picks from Greenacres.

37
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 7: Was the place to be Green Acres.

38
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 5: I love Greenacres, Beverly Hill.

39
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 3: Think yeah, I think I can still sing every every

40
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 3: word of that to Come.

41
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 4: I'm not a singer.

42
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 5: Goodbye my Wife, Goodbye City.

43
00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:57,639
Speaker 6: Live.

44
00:01:59,680 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 8: You have.

45
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 2: I'm sure we've touched on this before, but that we

46
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 2: loved that album cover, but it wasn't used everywhere, right,

47
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 2: No America.

48
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 5: Cold They changed it because I thought it was a

49
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 5: bit ugly and kind of a bit you know, garish.

50
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 7: They didn't get it they put this, you know, they

51
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 7: pot this.

52
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,919
Speaker 5: Really nice kind of you know, eighties style pastel thing

53
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 5: with crayon dinosaurs on the front.

54
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 6: Was really loudy.

55
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 5: But and at the end of the tour was very funny,

56
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 5: like we kept two of the US in that year

57
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,799
Speaker 5: with that album, and all the fans were buying the

58
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 5: import copy from Australia because they preferred the cover and

59
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 5: also the song order. They changed the order of the

60
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 5: songs as well, did they really by the end of Yeah,

61
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 5: so by the end of the tour we mostly signed

62
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,959
Speaker 5: Australian import copies and the record company said it was, well,

63
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 5: we don't think the cover changed the sales at all,

64
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 5: And so the obvious retort to that is, then why

65
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 5: the hell did you do it?

66
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,959
Speaker 4: And you make the sales? Yeah, don't confuse them with logic.

67
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 3: Great, I mean so many great song Toojo, which is

68
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 3: ripper Leilani my Girl, I was a Kmakazi Parla Xanzbar

69
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 3: I Want You Back was huge, huge hit off the

70
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 3: album and one would probably think it was about some

71
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 3: kind of broken relationship, but was it about a former

72
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 3: band member leaving the group?

73
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 5: You have a sort of a little bit of a

74
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 5: Sneaky You diget our old founding member Rod, he formed

75
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 5: with me and Kimball.

76
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, Kimball left. Kimball left the film.

77
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 5: Follow his film career, and he's done it ever since.

78
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 5: But Rod wanted to leave his own band. He'd done

79
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 5: it a few times in the past, by the way.

80
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 5: He left a sign us the same way as well,

81
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 5: so he had form in that regard. But but you know,

82
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 5: I just wrote the song as a bit of a

83
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 5: you might be sorry one day, you'll wish you were

84
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 5: back with us, you know, at the same time as

85
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 5: a love song. It's kind of funny because in a

86
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 5: way the person singing is a little bit sad that

87
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 5: you think because they're kind of wishing the person would

88
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 5: change their mind to come back to them.

89
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 3: Is tojo the song that audiences lose their mind over

90
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 3: most when you're.

91
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 4: Doing it live.

92
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 5: It is one that keeps being yelled out at me.

93
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 5: So yes, it's got a weird you know following. I

94
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 5: don't know why that song is clicks so much. I

95
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 5: mean the ways the one song, the one song. My

Speaker 5: But also the songs about Cyclone Tracy and my brother

104
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 5: was living there at the time, so I kind of

105

Speaker 4: Listen.

135
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,919
Speaker 3: I mean, let me just run off a couple of

136
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 3: the names. Deborah Byrne, Jamie Redfern, Karen Knowles, Tina Arena,

137
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 3: and Danny Minogue just a few of the people who

138
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 3: went on to do big things. Were you, Johnny, Were

139
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 3: you involved in all of the castings?

140
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 1: Oh?

141
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 8: Yes, I was. Well. I had producers who found people

142
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 8: for me to look at. Yeah, if they were well,

143
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 8: because I was looking for a variety of kids. You know,

144
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 8: we had Tina Arena, but we also had Karen Knowles,

145
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 8: who were totally different people. You know, they were different personalities,

146
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 8: and I think that was the charm of Young Talent

147
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:42,599
Speaker 8: Shime was that it was it wasn't a kid show.

148
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 8: It was a family show. Yes, yes, and you know

149
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:52,360
Speaker 8: eighty fought Television was wonderful. In Australia, we used to

150
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 8: you know, sit down with the family and watch shows

151
00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 8: and you know it was Don Lane and fantastic programs

152
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 8: which we don't have today.

153
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:04,840
Speaker 7: You know, it changed.

154
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, we were so invested in these people, you know,

155
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 3: I mean we used to talk about Tiny teena arena

156
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 3: like she was, you know, an.

157
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 4: Extended member over all our family. She was, I know,

158
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 4: my grandmother.

159
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 3: Did I think she wanted to swap me for We

Speaker 2: forty one years ago there was an album called Labor

220
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 2: of Love which changed everything. Red red Wine was a

221
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 2: huge single and you had so many great songs on there,

222
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,079

225
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:37,200

Speaker 6: or four albums out in the early eighties and yeah,

227
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 6: and quite a bit of success in the charts and stuff.

228
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:48,080
Speaker 6: But when we released Labor of Love and the accompanying

229
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 6: single Red Red Wine, of course that went number one

230

Speaker 6: that absolutely launched us onto another level.

232
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 3: Another big one was, of course your version of Kingston Town.
