Just a reminder that the 'O' downloads are now available here.
(THE) OLDEST STORY IN THE BOOK/OUR SUNSHINE/OTHER PEOPLE’S HOUSES
"Song number one is a Tom, Dick and Harry story. Our three heroes get mixed up with June and the moon. Tom gets the girl, Harry gets the song and Dick’s just happy to be in a rock and roll band.
Our Sunshine is the title of a novel by Robert Drewe based on the life and times of Ned Kelly. “Our Sunshine” is supposedly what Ned’s dad used to call him when he was a child. I wrote this song with Mick Thomas in Mt Macedon.
Truman Capote once wrote a (long) short story based on a day he spent accompanying a cleaning woman on her rounds in various apartments in Manhattan. She smokes dope and plays records as she goes about her work. The great Louvin Brothers’ song, A Tiny Broken Heart, also lurks at the back of Other People’s Houses.
Have a good month."

(If you go there tonight and have missed out on the 'N' songs, you can still download them too.
That could be you Loki!)
