Don't really know much about Kevin Bloody Wilson soz. Never really got a round to listening to him actually. So much for cultural accomplishment

When I was a kid When we lived in Aussie for a bit & I fell in love with some Australian folk music (snowy mountain songs) Which was hilarious & I have spent ages trying to find them but I don't have the names of any of the songs. Just random lines in my head. A lot were about working on the snowy mountain scheme, some were about the opal mines. All filled with that typically dry irreverent australian humor (maybe that's why I like scousers so much
). One thing I did find though was a section of a radio station called "Australia all over" The spot was called "Macca in the morning" & it was filled with heaps of hilarious aussie songs. I didn't find the ones I wanted but my Nanna sent me several tapes of the show which I still listen to whenever I feel an urge to laugh until I p*ss myself. I must have a hunt down & see if I can get the station online & if they still run that show.
I just went to get the tapes (had a fancying to listen to them) & couldn't find them. I must've 'tidied' them away when the homeschool inspector was comming, I'll probably never find them now
I must have a hunt & see if I can find any of them on limewire.
I remember (for any of you who like cricket) that there was one song called "I made a hundred in the back yard at mums" (not a raunchy one but v. funny) That was so popular (& drove so many people nuts with the play rate) that two different people wrote retaliatory songs (that were at least as funny) & sent them into the station. I would love to get that 'trilogy'. But it was a radio station so I never had the names of most of the songs & many of the songs in that section were not 'commercial' songs. Chances of finding any are pretty low
