To kick off the year we figured we’d celebrate Australia Day with an all Australian music show featuring the story of Fable Label and Bootleg records, as well as a tribute to Ron Tudor who made it all happen.
Ron started the labels against all the odds, no money and facing the might of the big record companies, an inspirational David and Goliath story and Aussie true Blue grit.
Featuring performances by Merv Benton, Brian Cadd, and Two man Band, The Strangers,
The Mixtures (see Melbourne the way it was many moons ago) Avalanche, Geoff Cox, Hans Poulsen, Liv Maessen, Bootleg Family Band (Penny Dyer)Frankie Davidson, John Williamson.
Many of the tracks featured are also heavily requested Hans Poulsen Boom Sha La La Lo being one of our top ten all time most requested songs!
Some high quality Clips were produced at Bill Armstrong’s Studios 180 Bank St. South Melbourne.
