Title: Australia
Post by: simon frisby on February 01, 2008, 08:14:58 PM
Hi Swarb,

Firstly thanks for giving us your time to do this.

Can i ask how much of an influence was your time in Australia on your music and compositions? Did it inspire you to write new tunes? I ask this as i find your tune 'My Heart is in New South Wales' absolutely beautiful. While im on the subject of Australia, do you have any plans to work with Alistair Hullet again?

May i take this opportunity to wish you much health, wealth and happiness.

Cheers

Simon

thanks for all that , oz is a blast its not poss to go there and not be influenced by the great outdoors,I have loved oz right from the sixty's when i recorded oz songs with bert lloyd.Ali  and i may at some time in the future work together again, I think he is the most underated writer i know.his politics of course do not win him many friends on a somewhat rightish minded folk scene.live and let live sez I ,we should appreciate the sheer poetry of what he does while we have him    ahem   swarb
