Friends from Melbourne! I got more from this show and 'Bandstand'. The sound quality is a bit off, but I'll do my best and post it.

AMAZING SONG!!!

[zatopecara]

One of the best Oz songs from the 70's and another Vanda and Young classic! I recall seeing JPY singing this song live on Countdown and nearly getting his clothes ripped off. Any chance of seeing that clip?
