    "Suzi Quatro, Pat Benatar and Tina Turner, who all had hits written by Nambour’s own Mike Chapman.

    "His list of hits written with Nicky Chinn under the “Chinnichap” moniker include Quatro’s Can the Can, Devil Gate Drive and 48 Crash, Mud’s Tiger Feet and Lonely this Christmas, The Sweet’s The Ballroom Blitz and Blockbuster, Racey’s Some Girls, Toni Basil’s (Hey) Mickey (originally a Racey song called Kitty), Smokie’s Living Next Door to Alice, and Stumblin’ In, which Quatro recorded with Chris Norman.

    "Chapman, who was educated at Churchie, also co-wrote Turner’s (Simply) The Best, Benatar’s Love is a Battlefield and Blondie’s Heart of Glass."

  7. RE: aus.social/@joannaholman/11645

    If you like Train Jazz, you might also like Tekno Train, featuring samples from Sydney's train system. Great for yr commute :)

    paulmac1.bandcamp.com/album/te

    "Paul Mac = Australian electronic music icon, half of Itch-E & Scratch-E +Stereogamous, he has been making weird, deep music for 30 years. Latest project = Tekno Train where he got a Sydney suburban K-Set for 3 weeks, filled it with music, lights, people and created a unique experience for Sydney's Vivid Festival."

    Whelp, we did see Dappled Cities live again tonight, and they were fantastic.

    So tight, and a great setlist of some old favourites and new songs that they really brought to life live. Also a lot of fun in a small venue, where we could chat to the band members afterwards.

    This time it was with the offspring, who had three of their albums in the soundtrack to her teenage years. So good to see her enjoy it that much.

  9. #BandcampFriday is a good day to pre-order the new Dappled Cities album, The Aquarium.

    I'm tempted to get tickets to see them live when they tour soon. Only sixteen years since I first (last) saw them perform. 😳

  10. Niche toot into the void for any #AusMusic people here. Dappled Cities have announced a new album and they're touring this April.

    For those new to the band, their middle three albums are masterpieces of quirky pop and lush production. Granddance, Zounds and Lake Air. Try the song The Price.

    Album - The Aquarium

    We're all captives:

    🎶 You're a man in a cage
    I see you everyday
    You're the one who has everything

    But your thoughts are disturbed
    You don't like what you've heard
    You condemn what you don't understand

    And you think you're happy, better than the rest
    But you're a prisoner like everybody else 🎶

    Wandering 'round with our eyes closed
    Wondering why we can't work out this

    Well, I'm sick of the youth
    I'm sick of everything we stand for

    Such indignity at such a dignified venue.

    🎶 My old man used to take me to the footy
    Now it's me takes him
    Been barracking for the Sainters
    Season on end, season cold and grim
    Every season we'd pretend that we were the great pretenders
    And watch in the rain getting done again by the real contenders

    Oh hear the cry, ring out to the Moorabbin sky

    Winmar to Lockett!

    You've got my heart when you've got the leather 🎶

    🎶 Five metres! Four, three, two, one!
    Gold to Australia! Gold to Australia!

    May all our young Aussie swimmers
    Be resigned to failure
    May our nation state
    Be always second rate
    May we do as history teaches
    Die on Middle Eastern beaches

    We produce a Norman May
    Not a Norman Mailer
    May our land's vast distance
    Always treat us with indifference 🎶

  26. Parramatta's Lord Mayor has written to the NSW State Government, calling on them to explore the purchase and restoration of the Roxy Theatre.

    They want to make it a live music and entertainment venue.

    Personally, I think it's an excellent idea. The Roxy is a beautiful heritage building that's slowly falling apart.

    Western Sydney, and the Parra CBD in particular, needs a live music venue like the Horton Pavilion and Enmore Theatre. That could attract international artists and provide a new venue for local music.

    "City of Parramatta is calling on the NSW Government to invest in the revitalisation of Roxy Theatre and restore it to its full potential as a premier live music and entertainment venue in the heart of Western Sydney.

    "The Roxy Theatre is critical to Parramatta’s global vision to establish a vibrant hub for culture, nightlife and entertainment in the CBD with Civic Link and the future Metro West projects taking shape.

    "City of Parramatta Lord Mayor Cr Martin Zaiter said Parramatta is becoming an epicentre of culture and creativity and a restored Roxy Theatre would boost Parramatta’s ability to attract and develop the next generation of performers.

    "'Now is the time to invest in the Roxy Theatre, it’s critical to our global transformation and vision of creating a thriving cultural precinct in our CBD,' Cr Zaiter said.

    "'Powerhouse Parramatta, Riverside Theatres and Civic Link are City-shaping projects already in the pipeline so we’re calling on the NSW Government to back the revitalisation of this iconic Western Sydney venue."

  27. Final positions after #Hottest200 on #DoubleJ. Still can't believe "Long Way to the Top" didn't make it.😠

    Obviously, "Thunderstruck"(13), "Highway to Hell"(31) and "Back in Black"(37) are great songs.

    #AusMusic #TripleJ #Hottest100

  28. As some who was born in Sydney and grew up listening to the J's (#doublej & then #triplej), I need put this on the #ausMusic record, as much it pains me:

    TripleJ did _not_ invent the #Hottest100

    They nicked it from 4ZZZ who started it in 1977 & run the countdown on New Years Day.
