A shining star worth remembering 40 years on 🙏🎸🎤

He sang "Errol, I would give everything, just to be like him" Not long after that he did give everything and he was just like Errol..

Guy your still here in your music and videos You sang amazingly and made James sound better then he was similar to Ian moss & barnsey RIP my friend

RIP Guy surly missed xxxxxx

Ele morreu do quê? What was the cause of his death?

Miss him every day ❤

Guy was an amazing singer , song writer ❤️

This takes me right back to the early 80s, when it was such a vibrant exciting time in the aussie music scene. Hearing Guy speaking with such positivity is so sad now. Such an iconic aussie band.

Love it!

Haunting song ... Simon on guitar according to Bills Great book Sons of Beaches

Unfortunately, that time, heroine and alcohol you can hear it in his voice it’s terrible, poor bugger that man is a legend

Great songwriter singer the band couldnt move on without him..The perils of hard drugs very sad..

Amazing

Nigel Spencer passed away in the US, aged about 68, apparently from complications from the coronavirus in 2020 RIP Nigel.

He made Australian crawl

Guy and the Crawl were our Rolling Stones, but not quite as well known

I saw Crawl and Guy early 80's at Sydney's Celina's and back of Manly Vale area, Hotel (don't remember name) Luckily we were right up close to the band, GREAT night's and MEMORIES! A really special time in Australia's culture. Thanks Guy and all. Life's short make it count, what your doing.

What a waste

Extremely good songwriter. Such a loss he was

This had me crying, its beautiful. So tragic, so young and talented. Im so sorry 🌹

A brilliant voice with a quiet presence , the sign of a true artist. Still enjoying his work .

Really miss him😔

It’s been many years ago since Guy passed away in 1984 from Pneumonia, but years later it was said that Guy may have had AIDS contribute to his early death. According to James Reyne, Guy was one of his favourite singers. Guy’s brother Bill used to play drums in Australian Crawl until the other members of the band decided to sack him, and according to Simon Binks one of the band members who voted to sack Bill as the band’s drummer was Guy himself and the band then got John Watson to take over. Simon Binks would go on to say that Guy McDonough’s guitar playing at times was not up to scratch because Guy would be getting drunk and Simon would have to re-record some of Guy’s guitar tracks. Many years later, James Reyne still performed the songs that Guy sung lead vocals on in Australian Crawl. Guy’s brother Bill McDonough after being sacked from Australian Crawl by the band infuriated James Reyne and Simon Binks by going and registering the band’s name “Australian Crawl” as a registered trademark that he owns. By then, Brad Robinson the other main member of the band had also passed away. David Reyne was I think the original drummer of Australian Crawl before Bill McDonough. After Guy passed away, Bill McDonough located some unreleased recordings of Guy performing lead vocals with Australian Crawl and released them on a CD called “Lost & Found” released in 1996 by Global Records - twelve years after Guy’s death. It was a compilation album and also featured songs from other albums including Guy’s solo album “My Place”. There were songs on “Lost & Found” also performed by Colin Hay a friend of the band and featured him on lead vocals of Australian Crawl, but was best known from the band “Men At Work”

Descance em paz

The music video was so emotional to watch the first I saw it but it also put a big smile on my face. What a tragedy! Thanks for posting.

R.I.P Guy. This is an epic and a beautiful one. This is quite emotional even now, decades after Guy’s death. You can feel the pain in his voice. Rest well, bud. Thank you for posting.

RIP Guy

thanks very much for adding this on Nigel! this is special stuff here. RIP Guy.

Nigel, thanks for publishing this. Maybe if we can manage to make it over in 2022 we’ll have to come by and pay homage to Mornington for spawning such amazing music.

Hi Nigel, thanks for the great site. Great music! Enjoying it in 2021 in USA!

Personally, I think Errol is the best Crawl song by far. This fella was the true voice of Aussie Crawl, no doubt. Just my two bobs worth..

Great vid thanks. How good would have been a show with Australian Crawl AND Men at Work. Two brilliant Aussie rock acts.

Only 28, just starting his life but already so successful.the vocals surprise me.

Hi Nigel. Loved working with you guys in 84 at Music Farm. Like ur mix and video of My Place. Always liked Footsteps. First heard it when Mark Williams played it to me on acoustic gtr. Greg Engineer
