Sound like cousins that are a little too close to me!

Now when I talk to God he said he'd understand, Stick by me I'll be your guiding hand. But don't ask me what I think of you. I might not give the answer you want me to.

'Curly Bad Boy Parker' ... I think I may start using that on some of the dodgy gigs I do from time to time.

(When I first arrived in Oz in 1975, I wound up in a little town called Tumbarrumba, playing with a guy called Lionel Long, who I didn't know until we met up at the airport to fly to the gig. He told me his usual picker was a guy called Barry Brackenbridge ... he couldn't make it for some reason. We played the Bowls Club, and it was just awful. Lionel was more of a TV actor and not really a singer ... I didn't know any of tunes, nor did he ... it was only because I was new to the country and I really needed the cash that I accepted the gig in the first place.

When we finished the set, the club manager came up onstage and said "Thanks Lionel, let's have a big round of applause for Lionel ... thanks for coming all this way ... and (pointing at me) a great big hand for the fantastic Barry Brakenbridge".

I took a bow, I was more than happy to be Barry that night.)
