    In case you didn’t know, ‘Howzat’ is call in cricket by the fielders to the umpire as an appeal for a batter to get out, slang for “how’s that”!

    In November 2023, the National Film and Sound Archive added Howzat to the Sounds of Australia register for songs of "cultural, historical and aesthetic significance and relevance". This song delineates the height of Sherbet’s career where they were considered Australia’s most popular band and yes, there was rivalry between Sherbet and Skyhooks for that title. 🙂

    The girls saw in Sherbet what us boys refused to acknowledge. They were better than we thought. I recommend something later like ''I Have The Skill'' or ''We Ride Tonight''. They got a little closer to Phil Collin's Genesis in the early 80's.

    The keyboard player Garth Porter was playing a clavichord sound which gave the low bass sound and hit the chord as a 7th chord which has a punching sound to add to the rhythm. It does give an unusual sound ..the clav was popular with Stevie Wonder.

    Sherbet (aka Highway or The Sherbs) was one of the most successful Australian rock bands of the 1970s. The 'classic line-up' of Daryl Braithwaite on vocals, Tony Mitchell on bass guitar, Garth Porter on keyboards, Alan Sandow on drums, and Clive Shakespeare on guitar provided their teen-oriented pop style. In 1976 Shakespeare left and was soon replaced by Harvey James. Sherbet's biggest singles were "Summer Love" (1975) and "Howzat" (1976), both reaching number one in Australia. "Howzat" was also a top 5 hit in the United Kingdom. The band was less successful in the United States, where "Howzat" peaked at No. 61. As The Sherbs they also reached No. 61 in 1981 with "I Have the Skill". The group disbanded in 1984. Subsequent re-unions have occurred since 1998. From 1970 until 1984 Sherbet scored 20 hit singles in Australia (including two number ones) and released ten platinum status albums. The single "Howzat" which was a number-one hit in 1976, also reached number four on the UK Singles Chart. They were the first Australian band to reach $1 million in record sales in Australia, and they pioneered the concept of massive regional tours. In December 1976, the book Sherbet on Tour, by Christie Eliezer, sold 30,000 copies in its first week. Daryl is still performing. Peace out.

    I'm going to do what my sister and stevefoulston does, and just share some facts that goes outside the usual comments.
    Sherbet seemed larger than life to a kid in Australia, and we were all hoping that they'd turn the rest of the world on the same way they turned us on. We just didn't get how nobody overseas was buying into '''Summer Love'' or '"Child's Play'' like we were. When Sherbet finally broke through internationally with ''Howzat'', we were very happy to hear that Sherbet were finally casting their spell on non-Australians. And then we grew bored and stopped seeing them as our band. The same sort of thing happened with AC/DC, Air Supply, Men At Work, INXS, Little River Band, etc. When they were only local hit makers, we wanted them to be as big as the international giants, and when they finally became just that, we blew them off like they weren't ours to begin with.
    It's the same feeling that a band describes when talking about making their first # 1. It's exciting for a week, and then it's ''ugh.. what's next''.
    Eighteen months after this song became a hit, Sherbet's popularity in Australia plummeted. It might have something to do with the tall poppy syndrome.

    Lead singer Daryl Braithwaite had a huge solo hit with a version of Rickie Lee Jones’ song The Horses.
    As a crossover, Daryl teamed up with James Reyne, lead singer of Australian Crawl, in a supergroup called Company Of Strangers and had a hit with a song called Motor City (I Get Lost). That’s worth a listen.

    • @sean---the-other-one

    Gillian (Live It Up) and I had the Daryl Braithwaite (singer) haircut in 1975 and 76. It's the hairstyle that looks like you have a coconut on top of your head with your hair flowing down the sides. A cute look for two little girls, but I don't know if it worked for Daryl. The band were a national obsession, and the ''battle'' between Skyhooks and Sherbet fans was a real thing at the time.
    The Bee Gees were English boys that had moved to Australia and were doing something in Australia what The Osmonds were doing in the States during the 60's. They were regulars on TV and had their own show. They then, rightfully, moved back to England for better oportunities. Air Supply were a Melbourne band that scored some hits in Australia in the mid 70's before rightfully moving to the US for better opportunities. Sherbet attempted the same thing when they moved to England, but in spite of the success of ''Howzat'' in the UK, the group weren't a powerhouse of top quality pop records. I enjoyed a lot of their singles including ''Child's Play'', ''Magazine Madonna'', ''Summer Love'', and ''Rock Me Gently'', which although were massive hits in Australia, do not have the international appeal of ''Howzat''.
    You also have to realise that a lot of culturally popular songs today were not massive charts hits at the time of release, but manage to be omnipresent through the ubiguity of the artist. ''Piano Man'' by Billy Joel only got to # 136 in the UK, but I'm sure a lot of British boomers would know the song by virtue of it being a Billy Joel song. If Sherbet were consistent in delivering singles that reached the standard of ''Howzat'', they would have been an internationally successful group. They just didn't have the material to maintain an international attention.
    Matters didn't improve for the band when they had two name changed. The dreadful Highway and the ho-hum The Sherbs. The group did manage to chart in the US for the second time in 1982 with ''We Ride Tonight''. Check out Daryl Braithwaite's ''Horses'', and it's beautiful music video.
    Cheers,
    Hayley

    Those pauses in the song would’ve freaked out some DJs the first time playing them on air. They might’ve thought something had gone wrong with the equipment or the song finished earlier than it should’ve.

    Another song by another artist which was really popular in the U.K. was "Sky High" by "Jigsaw" so much so, that it was used as a theme song for a Martial Arts crossover film along the lines of 'Enter The Dragon' it starred Jimmy Wang Wu called 'The Man from Hong Kong'.

    Tony Mitchell's bass in this is fantastic. Harvey James nailed the solo. The dead stops and the layered vocals are great. This was one of the best produced Aussie songs for its time and you can tell Richard Lush (ex-Beatles engineer) gave the band something extra.

  • @notanotherenigma7759

    Yeah, great song. One of our national sports is cricket 🏏. Howat is Aussie speak for 'how is that?', an appeal to the ref to give the batsman out. There was even a mini series about cricket with the same name. You've Got The Gun is another great one of theirs.
    And I'd also recommend some Little River Band, which was also from this era, either 'Help Is On It's Way' or 'Cool Change'. Those were with the original singer. Or The Other Guy and Down On The Border, those had John Farnham as singer!

    I’m writing this BEFORE the track has started as I know I get carried away with emotion sometimes 😅. Firstly thank you for playing and to the other 11 connoisseur’s of fine music I say “ welcome to the Dark side 🤣”…
    This takes me right back to autumn 1976 , I was 14 and starting to take note of music, fashion , the world around me and as Father Jack Hacket would say GERLS …
    Then this came on TOTP and the Radio🎤… loved it from the first funky chord outta that cracking sounding keyboard and thought the singer was brilliant and his blue satin bomber jacket was the dogs bollocks … NOW I’ll let the track play and be 14 again for just over 3 mins … 😃

    Okay, I'm a bit late catching up with this one and haven't read all the comments. So anyway, these guys started out in the early 70's and I think their first major song was can you feel it baby, or maybe it was free the people, and later on my favourites are summer love, slipstream, silvery moon, old Sid and magazine Madonna. There's heaps more, but it's late at night and I can't think of any more yet.😅
    So when you have a chance to check them out again, I'll be waiting. 😁💖
    P. S. Most of the older Aussie bands were unheard of by America and Canada until Molly from countdown pushed them out there. That show started out in 74', but still, most of the bands and artists were overlooked in favour of overseas acts.

Some of the all-Australian born acts may not have been on the very top of the mountain, but they had success overseas, and there were plenty of Australian acts with British members that had no success outside Australia. I think that blows the 60% theory out the water.

    The bass has been detuned. At the time, it didn't bother me, but as a bass player, I cringe at the sound, although I still love the song.

      If anyone is interested, Col is a very accomplished bassist . He's okay with a six string and pretty good with the keyboards, although he will tell you that he can't play piano or organ. That's because he measures himself again Jon Lord and Rick Wakeman, so you can see why.

But that’s what music does , it affects different folk in a different way on any different day and both of us are right - and that’s a reason to celebrate Heath ! Cheers buddy ✊

      @@jaymacgee_A_Bawbag_Blethering music is very subjective everyone has an opinion and just like Aholes some of them skink ( and I'll gladly inbrace the stinky 💩 opinion) being very opinionated musically i can't be around music i don't like. On my best friends stag night on the Gold coast Australia i spent most of the night by myself at a bar playing mostly Ska while my brothers/best friends went night clubbing electronic rubbish blasting out of the doors so went walking until i found a bar playing good music and drank lemonade and coffee for about five hours before meeting up with the boys who were ROTTEN drunk trying to get all of them out of the bar and into taxi vans was a mission where is? Go into the bar find them and hello everyone is back in the bar. sometimes it sucks being the only non drinker amongst my friends i was supposed to be the babysitter for them but i would rather they all died in a club fight than listen to house/drum N bass electronic rubbish that's just the way i am

      I do not know what Kia Ora means but assume it a greeting native to New Zealand. I remember having cordial of that name as a kid so must have been from New Zealand. Your situation sounds totally horrible to go through. I hope you are well looked after and can heal up to be out of pain after the tricky surgery you sound like you be going through. All the best with the recovery and make the most of this time where you will need to be really kind and patient with yourself.
