Indeed. Saw Archie on his last visit to the Port Fairy Festival a few months ago...he wasn't exactly in good health then but still gave his all to a performance. As I type I am listening to a recording of his last single , One Song. A truly great indigenous artist :salute

There was always no doubt to us. Even if she was born in England, she was Australian, just not ocker.

Not sure where you got cancer from DFM... seems she was actually the latest victim of the "Aaron Ramsey scores a goal, and an hour later a famous celebrity dies" death curse....

Which is obviously a ridiculous thing to say, until you read the list of celebrities that have died within hours of one of Ramsey's fairly rare goals...

Gaddafhi, Bin Laden, Bowie, Ken Dodd, Burt Reynolds..... all cut down by Ramsey's right boot.

Judith Durham’s stunning golden voice has been living in my head since I was 16 in the 60s. One of the greatest popular singers of all time.
