Thankfully there are no coups or blood letting this year unlike our struggling counterparts in federal politics. I look forward to seeing the results of both elections, though I have to say, I feel a whole lot more confident in what we will get with the Folk Fed than I do with the other “Fed”. This will be my last President report and though I am happy to be stepping aside and tak- ing on a new role with St Albans Folk Festival, at the same time I want to thank, whole heartedly, the committee, Coral, Julie, Wayne and the membership in general for making the last four years or so some of the most rewarding time of my life. People have been more than generous and I feel privileged to have been able to give my all to the role. I hope to stay involved and continue on the committee in a lesser role. I often peruse the last couple of reports when compiling the new report for the AGM. Normally I wouldn’t cut and paste whole slabs from one to the other but this time I am happy too as the people involved are still doing the wonderful job on their volunteer basis and I think what I have said previ- ously captures the amazing effort they put in to keep the Folk Fed running. ‘We are all volunteers who give what we can, when we can, but perhaps the ones that give the most on an ongoing basis are the people who keep us all up to date via Cornstalk and Folkmail and look after membership and the Jam website. Wayne your work with the website and membership is more than generous and we quite simply would struggle to function as an organization without your continued support. Julie spends an average of at least one full day a week keeping us all up to date via Folkmail and we all appreciate you good nature, humour and eye for detail that makes Folkmail such a wonderful resource. The third spoke in this particular wheel is the Cornstalk Gazette, Coral spends many hours compiling and editing to get the “papers out on time” every month, as do Dallas and Jim with the wrapping and mailing and we thank you - very much. I guess we can all take some things for granted, particularly when they continue to run smoothly and are always there, it is often only when things change and all of a sudden they are not there or not there in the same way that we remember and realise their inherent value. I wish to say thankyou now and acknowledge the wonderful job you all do while things are still running smoothly.” On a similar note, a big thank you to the Committee for all you has given over the past year/s. To Bruce, Dallas, Jim, Margaret, Pam, Patrick, Sandra and Terry, your good company and many skills have made for another enjoyable and productive year. We have still been able to support various projects by auspicing on behalf of our members and now that we have tax deductible status, hope to be able to do more for our members. I had hoped that we would have a new website up and running by now but am happy to say we are still pursuing such and I’m sure the new committee will be able to deliver something wonderful in the coming year. The Mofo – Modern Folkie team have gone from strength to strength over the last twelve months. Congratulations to Alice, Bec, Charlotte, Delphina, Joel, Mikaela, Peter and all the rest of the helpers. We had our first fundraising event and recreated the speakeasy feel of the 1920’s and 30’s. The music was great, the Gaelic Club looked amazing and everyone did their part in getting “frocked up” in style for the night. I believe they kicked on into the wee hours and we managed to raise over $600.00, which goes towards running future events and supporting our amazing young talent. We will be having another themed night with the Bearded Gypsy Band and The Tiger And Me, in December, so be sure to join us as we celebrate another excellent year in Mofo style. A big thankyou to the performers who have been a part of Mofo, we love being able to provide a space to celebrate your talents and look forward to the next years events. Also huge thanks to Aisling, Dylan, Alex and all at the Gaelic Club. We are very lucky to have such a wonderful venue and people supporting us in running our monthly gigs . It was a pleasure to present Dave DeSanti with life time achievement award and Mark Gregory and Brian Dunnett their Highly Commended Award as contributors to the Trains of Treasure project, at this years National. All have given greatly to the folk world and was a wonderful to see a good turnout for the presentation and the generous applause for the recipients. Thanks also to Pam Merrigan and the National Folk Festival for providing the venue and note in the programme. Well I suppose that’s all for now, at least in my current role, again it has been a privilege and a pleasure and I would never have guessed when Christina Mimmocchi approached me a number of years ago to ask if I might be interested in putting up my hand for the position of President, that the 30 second conversation would have led to such a wonderful couple of years, spent in the company of people who have become in many ways my second family. Thankyou and here’s to the next 12 months and beyond, whatever they may bring.

Before starting, I want to say I was really fortunate to be able to work with Philip on this book. [Jeff Apter holds up a coffee table book] [JEFF APTER] And it was one of the more interesting exercises, wasn't it? Because we were given a directive to come up with... Was it 200 photos? ..for this book. [PHILIP MORRIS] That's right. [JEFF APTER] And Philip's archive is so fantastic and so rich, that I think we got it down to, what, 600? [PHILIP MORRIS] Yeah. [Audience laughs] [JEFF APTER] Was it 600 to start with? It was something like that. And it's staggering, really. It's a really great document of Australian rock history at a really interesting turning point. So to get it down to this... It's begging for a second edition, by the way. There's so many great photos. So it was a real honour to be able to... to do that. It was a lot of fun. [PHILIP MORRIS] Yeah, it was. [JEFF APTER] We actually had built into our contract... Our agreement was an understanding that we would never work in a boring situation.

  • Daly-Wilson: Dynamic Big Band
    DALY-WILSON: DYNAMIC BIG BAND by Eric Myers _____________________________________________________________ The Daly-Wilson Big Band re-emerged for the first time in 1980 for a series of concerts at the Argyle Courtyard last week. The Sydney Morning Herald jazz critic ERIC MYERS takes a look at the story of one of the most dynamic big bands Australia has seen. Drummer Warren Daly (left) & trombonist Ed Wilson… PHOTO COURTESY WARREN DALY COLLECTION hen drummer Warren Daly and trombonist Ed Wilson gathered together a group of young musicians for a rehearsal big band at W Sydney's Stage Club in 1969, few thought that, in 1980, they would be in the 11th year of the Daly-Wilson Big Band. Yet these two unassuming musicians, through sheer hard work and dedication to an idea, have created the only Australian big band within living memory which can list achievements comparable to those of the prestigious American big bands led by musicians such as Maynard Ferguson, Count Basie, Woody Herman and Buddy Rich. The success of the Daly-Wilson Big Band over the last 10 years is on the record. It has released eight LPs, all of which have sold well, and two have had outstanding sales. The Daly-Wilson Big Band On Tour (1973) sold more than 1 30,000 and its highest selling LP Daly-Wilson in Australia sold more than 60,000 and now has two gold records. It has mounted a national tour of Australia almost every year. In 1975, with the Whitlam Government picking up the tab, the band made a triumphant tour of the Soviet Union playing to more than 100,000 people in three weeks.

  • Guide to the Deb Doyle Archive in the Powerhouse
    GUIDE TO THE DEB DOYLE ARCHIVE IN THE POWERHOUSE MUSEUM Paul Wilson 2008 CONTENTS Biographical Note Series List Series Descriptions and Item Lists COLLECTED ARCHIVES BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE Registration Number: 2008/53/1 Creator: Doyle, Deb Deb Doyle, née Deborah (Debbie) Eva Baer, was born on the first day of 1955, at the King George V Memorial Hospital, in Camperdown, Sydney. From age two and a half to twelve, she lived with her grandparents in Eastwood, Sydney and attended Kent Road Public School, also in Eastwood. During these early years, her parents sought to reconcile their marriage but eventually divorced in 1963, when their daughter was eight. Deb's interest in the world of popular music developed at about this time. 'Ever since the Beatles tour in June 1964, when I was nine, I'd found solace and balance in making picture books, writing poems, drawing, painting, and later, playing the recorder and listening to DJ Ward Austin's programs on Radio 2UW ("Even granny tunes her tranny to the New 'UW!").' Just after Christmas 1966, Deb and her mother moved across Sydney to a one-bedroom basement flat in Morehead Street, Redfern. After one term at Randwick Girls High School, Deb transferred to Sydney Girls High. When she was thirteen, she and her mother moved again, across the street to another one-bedroom flat in the Housing Commission's 'Kendall' block. She created the archive's earliest paintings and posters of pop artists and groups at about this time. In October 1967, Deb and her friend Cheryl went to Hyde Park to attend the Waratah Festival, where they saw the Masters' Apprentices perform their hit song 'Living in a Child's Dream'.

Signed, Shain Shapiro 1 December 2014 London, UK 1 Abstract This dissertation is a cultural and historical analysis of the history of popular music funding in Canada, from 1949 to 2013. Canada has an extensive public subsidy system for popular music, deriving from the implementation of content quotas for publicly licensed airwaves and the need to supply these airwaves with appropriate content. This thesis evaluates and analyses the history that engendered these policies to reveal their impact on the concept of Canadian identity as a whole, and the impact of Canadian identity formation on the popular music industries.
