  • hello, can you help me with a project? i need to know who wrote the song and on what date was it created? thank youuu

  • @TripleJProductionz Sure, I can help you out with some details - this is a Shane Howard tune, produced by Trevor Lucas and recorded in 1984 and released around the end of 1984 (hence the Xmas reference above) and the start of 1985. Cheers.

  • I love Aussie music! I also love "solid ground" by Goanna. i live in Canada but my sister, brother-in-law, their kids & THEIR kids all live in WA. i miss them & want to go there!

  • "Solid Rock" I think you mean? Great song too, they had several.

    You will be jealous that only yesterday I was in the same hall that features above - the band is playing in the Great Hall of the National Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne - can't miss that ceiling, even after 26 years! :)

  • Good on ya Rozcos love these great Ausie classics give us more if you can. What a message this song sends, pitty more of the world haven't seen it

  • Thanks, hope to put more up soon. Meanwhile watch for Shane Howard's younger brother Damien, I heard some of his stuff last week and was impressed, he sounds alot like Tim Finn!

see all

    If your interested 'Pop' look up a few other Shane Howard songs you'll find a great range of awesome music,

    recommend "If the well runs dry" and "Back in time" oh and "let the franklin flow" is another personal fav.

    Enjoy!

  • Bloody hell! I just twigged that they're playing in the National Gallery of Victoria! (And then read your comment Rozcoz.) It's only taken me twenty-six years. Mind you, I did grow up in WA.

    This is one song that helped to make me an activist. 'Love walks lonely by the Berlin Wall.' Gosh, the sensations of being a Cold War kid in the seventies and eighties come flooding back.

  • such a nicely flowing song. great to rediscover

  • @Roscoz Hi Billy Payne produced our second C.D Oceania

  • @Roscoz Its funny .. they come from Geelong yet the lyrics are world based. I recall at the time watching this on Sounds and the "guest" for the morning was Eric Burdon who was stoked that someone so far away from all the politics of Europe and the USA would write such "non provincial" thought provoking lyrics and that aussie tv would be playing it.

  • @Tarrant1976 Yes the band formed in Geelong
