Robert Forster perhaps? That would make sense as Grant McLennan (also from the Go-Betweens)appears on "Don't Harm The Messenger" from the "Gossip" album.
Man, what a classic, I might be only 23 and a lot of that stuff like picking up your own pack of smokes, loooooong time ago, but thefact I can recognise most of those places, sends a shiver up my spine.
this was the best time when everything bak like then wen everything was just so casual. Also everything bak there was the best i really miss those days so much and i wish i were still a part of them. All the new stuff: rap, hip hop is just terrible this is one true aussie classic!!! 5 stars.
Wot a great Aussi classic. The smokes he buy's in the clip probably only cost $1 back then? Was a top time 2 b livin here. I'm Aussi true and blue n proud of it, hope the next gen doesn't spoil it for us.
first saw the great man at teh tivoli in sydney mid 80's...so amazing i went along again the next night! the venue full of goths (oddly i thought) drinking VB, which was just getting a foot in the tooheys stronghold! a very spesh time to be alive...aus legends every week....gurus, H & Cs, p.Kelly, huston creepers, moffs...i feel young again!
Truer words were never spoken.... Australia is the best FUCKING country in the world and we are the best DAMN people in the world and should be more proud of that fact!!!!
A fantastic time to be alive! Our bands were the best in the world, the beer was cold, the music was live & loud + the whole world knew that Oz rocked !!
I wasn't there 2 enjoy this Australia i wish i was born 20 years earlier 2 live in the last years of the true austrailan i can only hope it comes back come on ausssie come on
this song reminds me of my mate,i just seen him b4 he moved over to london and as i was driving away the song came on and it just made me sad love it tho
When i was teenager in Slovakia, this guy was my idol!! I love everything he's done but i have a real love for 'Wintercoat' and 'I Won't be Your Dog, Anymore'. Thanks to all who share these clips!!

I don't know but Paul Kelly's grin at 2:18 when he accepts the handful of fifties from him is priceless! My favourite moment of this awesome clip.

Paul Kelly can still teach the music industry a thing or two. He is the best songwriter of the past 20-something years in Australia.
