  Quoting 408 on 23 Apr 2023 01:39 AM

  

  G'day, if I remember correctly, the first time Sir Les appeared at a club in N.S.W. the audience thought he was a club official making an announcement.

  I heard the "Trumby" song back in the 70's and remember it well. On a vinyl record at a remote homestead.
  

  Not sure what the actual album was but the song had more on it than that version. The song went on the explain about a poisoned water hole etc.

  Do you know that version Bloo?

  Reckon Slim was decades younger when he originally sung it than in that video.

  Trumby, the original and more detailed version.

  Cheers

  Funny how times change.

  There is a lyric in the song near the end that says, "His skin was black but his heart was white, and that's what matters most".

  Compared to the welcome to country stuff and respect for the "whatevers" that goes on before any game or ABC broadcast these days.
