Brooks The Pub with no Beer Gordon Parsons Indian Pacific Joy Mckean Are the Good Days Gone Slim Dusty Gumtrees by the Roadway Slim Dusty Slim Dusty is too well known as a country music performer and song writer to dwell on here. He has a detailed wiki here, and at time of writing an eponymous website here, with full details of his career. His most famous song, A Pub with No Beer, even has its own wiki listing here. Joy McKean has her own wiki listing here. The film concentrates on Slim's collaborations with the likes of Stan Coster, who has his own wiki here, and bushman and raconteur Lew Williams, as noted in a story in Filmink on the making of the film here: Local cattleman and long-time friend of Slim's, the late Lew Williams, is given prominent billing for a wonderful scene where he recites humorous bush verse for Slim's entourage and Slim returns the favour by singing a song written especially for Lew. Sadly, Lew died soon after the film was made adding poignancy to one of the film's highlights and this is commented on in the documentary about the making of the film, Just Rollin', included on the recently-released four-disc DVD edition of the film. Also featured in the DVD 'making of' is Rod Coe, who is credited with the music production for the film: Mike Kerin, who played mandolin and fiddle in the Travelling Country Band featured in the film backing Slim Dusty, also appears in the DVD 'making of': For more photos of Slim Dusty and Joy McKean and other musicians as they appear in the film, see this site's photo gallery.

Lyrics for the song as they appear in the film are: He sat by the door of the grand old Birdsville Pub, His swag and gear guarded by a faithful heeler dog, He wore a shirt that would blind ya and a rumpled ringer's hat, This old man was country, he left no doubt of that. There was legend in the lines of his weather beaten face, Those eyes had seen a lot of changes in the Aussie race, The passing of the horseman, the death of an ace, Seems to me he's doubts that we've turned a better page. He sat there hillbilly pickin' on a cracked and battered Gibson, And the songs that he sang were all his, Every song told a story and the more that I'd listen, The more I realised this is where country is. He sang of mobs of cattle moving down the Birdsville track, And the camels carting wool in the early days outback, He sang of wild eyed scrubbers ridin' flat out in the night, Tryin' to ring the mob, 'cause lightning's quick to fright. And he sang loudly and proudly of our pioneering ladies and I suspect that one such lass was his. Home in this early frontier country was a lonely dirt floor humpty, No doubt about it, this man knows where country is. Mmm, mmm ... His songs told how they did it and I felt a sense of shame, And I wondered if the battler would ever be again, His pride for his country rang true in every song, And I wondered, if the chips were down, I would be as strong. (then with backing vocals) He sat there hillbilly pickin' on a cracked and battered Gibson, And the songs that he sang were all his, Every song told a story and the more that I'd listen, The more I realized this is where country is. (Spoken) Yes mate, we're so far from the city here. You know what - this is where country is … mmm, dah dah dee ... (fade out). The albums were re-released on two CDs as part of Umbrella's four disc box set edition of the movie, but also remain in print in other formats, as per this iTunes' listing: .

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand marking: or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
