I believe this was around 1980.....Thank you for playing this suggestion. So this concert was a memorial for the late Andy Durant RIP. He passed in 1979 of Melanoma at the age of 24 or 25. The full concert is epic and showcases the songs Andy wrote, except of course this song by Bob Dylan. The piano in the introduction is played by Don Walker of Cold Chisel. The humming at the beginning was Ian Moss and Jimmy Barnes, but the camera was on Ian Moss. Verse 1 - Ian Moss (Black Shirt with the guitar), Verse 2 -Mick Pealing (Blue Suit) who was the Lead singer of Stars, the group the memorial was for, with the loss of Andy Durant, their song writer and guitarist/singer. Verse 3 - Broderick Smith RIP (Lead Singer of the Dingoes, and middle person in the group of 3 with Richard Clapton in the black leather jacket, and Billy Rogers). Verse 4 - Jimmy takes the microphone out of the stand... hold onto your socks.... Jimmy Barnes (Red T-Shirt) and Renee Geyer (pronounced Gay-er, our soul Queen of Australia) RIP The other guy with a red dress shirt singing with Ian Moss at times is Glyn Mason. The second guitar soloist was Mal Eastick, in the light blue shirt. He was the guitarist for the band Stars.
Nicely put and thanks for the context - from all the kids watching. Cheers. I would also add that Kerryn Tolhurst of The Dingoes spent some time on stage during this concert. Kerryn wrote All Fired Up and recorded it in Australia well before Benetar, P.. th-cam.com/video/kV1ELKBGpu8/w-d-xo.html
Good run down, all the production crew worked for free as well, from the distant memory. Malcolm's cousins, two brothers were roadies, I believe that they both worked on the show. I missed out, I was working that night.
First verse Ian Moss sings, Verse 2 Mick Pealing, verse 3 Broderick Smith, Verse 4 Jimmy Barnes and Renee Geyer. All recorded in 1980 in Melbourne at a memorial concert.
I don't think mick would like you calling him Pearling, I mean Pealing is his surname, and the Andrew Durrant Memorial Concert was at the Palais Theatre in StKilda. Mick had a band called Mick Pealing and the Ideals after Andy passed. The drummer went on to play with Mondo Rock, JJ.Hacket, the bass player became a band manager, Ian MacDonald, the lead guitar player, Malcom Eastick went on to play with Broderick Smiths Big Combo.
@@stephenanthony6508Mal Eastick also was in Jimmy's solo band in the beginning. Broderick Smith eecently passed away and Renee Geyer a few months ago.
You are correct the tambourine player in the red t shirt was Barnsy as he is known locally he was singing with Rene Geyer ,RIP an Australian rock and blues singer who was well-known worldwide for her songs STARES AND WHISPERS and HEADING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. if you think Barnsy can belt out a song look up his daughter Mahalia Barnes singing a duet with guitar legend Joe Bonamassa called RIDING WITH THE KINGS or her song NASTY GAL you wil be amazed, guaranteed .
This is from the Andrew Durant memorial concert, in 1980. Andrew Durant was singer, songwriter and guitarist with the group "Stars". Sadly, he passed away at 25 from cancer. All the songs in the concert, except "Knockin on heavens door" were written or co-written by Andrew. Wellworth checking out.
Oh my, listening to this has just set off my memories. So many great performers here in Australia. I am only new to your channel, so I have only just started listening to your catalogue of past reactions. My memories go back a bit because I have been a life long lover of music since the 1950’s and I have to give credit to the many Britains and New Zealanders who have enriched Australia’s music scene for decades. From New Zealand, Max Merritt and the Meteors (pure 60-70’s) then Split Endz and Crowded House and many more. Of course AC/DC, Stevie Wright, Jimmy Barnes, John Farnham, Olivia Newton John, the Gibb brothers and many more from the UK who have entertained us over the decades. I won’t even attempt to laud the Aussie born talent with the exception of the one and only Renee Geyer RIP who shared the stage in this memorial concert. They were the trail blazers for the successful talent that has emerged to follow in their footsteps.
This was a memorial concert for Andy Durant, the songwriter and member of a band called Stars. First verse Ian Moss sings, Verse 2 Mick Pearling, verse 3 Broderick Smith, Verse 4 Jimmy Barnes and Renee Geyer. All recorded in 1980 in Melbourne. First guitar solo is Ian Moss, and second guitar solo is by Mal Eastick. Piano player is Don Walker. Female Singer is Renee Geyer.
I remember this concert among other things as my first introduction to this song. Compared to this the Axel Rose version has always appeared like a socks down the jocks plastic version of the song. "Wah Wah knocking on heaven's door oar yeah yeah yeah." The Axel Rose version gets played in rotation on FM radio here in Australia and I have to listen to it at work knowing that the perfect version of the song that I listened to in my youth played by our best rock artists is never going to be played.
Tamborine guy is Jimmy, first guitarist Ian Moss. Piano was Don Walker also from Cold Chisel. Organ solo is Mal Eastick from the Stars. Renee is Australia’s First Lady of RNB and soul.
In August 1980, a “who’s who” of Australian rock talent took part in a memorial concert for Andrew Durant, guitarist & songwriter with the band Stars. Durant died in 1979, of cancer at the age of 25. Among those who took part were Jimmy Barnes, Don Walker & Ian Moss of Cold Chisel. In this clip, all the artists in attendance performed a version of Bob Dylan’s “Knocking on Heavens Door”. Jimmy duets with Renee Geyer.
Yo! Loving your deep dive into Australian music. This was the soundtrack to my childhood. If you want something a bit more current from Jimmy Barnes, you should check out Stone Cold with Jow Bonamassa on guitar. I think you'd appreciate it. Peace... ✌
Similar to this but much better is Jimmy with INXS doing a live cover of Good Times , also The Party Boys cover of He’a Gonna Step On You Again..... featuring Jimmy’s brother John Swan ( Swannee ) The Party Boys were a rolling band for Aussie and New Zealand musicians to keep in practise when between gigs and employment, or other projects. Also included international stars from time to time, like Graham Bonnet, Eric Burdon and Joe Walsh.
Cream of australian singers on stage during the Andrew Durant memorial concert ..august 1980 Oh and TRUE Axle Rose got nothing on Jimmy Barnes....but Jimmy barnes got nothing on John Farnham the biggest Aussie singing legend. Check them both (Jimmy and John) out singing together When Something is Wrong with My Baby. Theres a live version from and Aussie show called Hey Hey it's Saturday. I hope you'll find time to check it out. YO I MADE IT TO THE END And have subscribed as well❤❤
The first singer is Ian Moss, lead singer alongside Jimmy Barnes of Cold Chisel fame; Jimmy is on tambourine, the female singer is Renee Geyer. All three are iconic Australian artists.
Mal Eastick from Stars. Great band. Mal played with Jimmy Barnes band when he first went solo in 84. First hit for Jimmy was No Second Prize from his first solo album. From the Andy Durant Memorial concert and if you want chills Ocean Deep is heart wrenching. Andy wrote it on his death bed. Also Jupiter Creek, Last of the Riverboats. Brilliant one off show from 1980
Yo - i know your happy with a YO but now you’ll know i’ve commented 3 times on yt & since you asked nicely it’s now 4. Every reaction of yours i’ve seen i’ve enjoyed & even learnt some stuff (was going to type shit but thought stuff would be better…lol) These Aussie rock legends took me back to 11, we’ve had such an awesome music scene, it’s changed a bit but still have some amazing talent around just don’t ask me who they are. I’m glad you enjoyed Kasey covering Em, please check out more of the Aussie female artists because you won’t regret it i promise you that or as i heard numerous times as a kid & others here might remember that phrase from Molly Meldrum who did a weekly countdown music show & later a segment of top 10 of who’s hot in music whenever he recommended artists or albums it was “do yourself a favour” & check them/it out etc. Aussie Aussie Aussie Oi Oi Oi 🇦🇺 See why i rarely comment, i can’t just do 1 word. “\_{‘•’}_/“
If you want to see two Aussie ledgens singing together with another on guitar 🎸 also solo singer Look this up John Farnham and Jimmy barnes Singing when there something wrong with my baby live version You'll see so high note and done easily Yes Jimmy in red and guitar 🎸 player Ian moss know as mossy from cold chisel he's the guitarist 🎸 singer in wild thing brilliant guitarist he second singer in cold chisel him and Jimmy great mates Life like a yo yo 😉 Cheers mate 🦘🇦🇺👍
Yo - loving your work. Maybe have a look at Midnight Oil's 1985 concert 'Oils on the Water' - at the top of their game with a live energy that just slaps you senseless - all the tracks are great but they finish with a killer version of 'Power and the Passion' well worth checking out.
They had to put Barnsey last because it would be unfair to anyone trying to solo after him. Renee Geyer has one of the best female voices in Aus, but since she mainly sang soul, blues etc she didn’t have the fame of pop and rock singers.
if you haven't done Stone Cold with Jimmy Barnes & Joe Bonnamassa, it's a masterclass. Then you need to slide down the John Farnham worm hole, "The Voice"
For a history of Aussie Singers, there are many from the legendary John Farnham who started singing in the 60's, to our rock legends, you could check out bands such as Billy Thorpe and the Aztec's, Axiom and The Twilights (Glenn Shorrock's bands prior to LRB), Little River Band (noting that the current LRB current band is not the same now as their original members of Glenn Shorrock, Beebs Birtle or Graeham Goble are not in the band, and for that matter, neither is John Farnham who entered the lead singer role for a few years), The Easybeats with lead singer Stevie Wright, ACDC or even further back, the band Fraternity that Bon Scott (original lead singer of ACDC) was in prior to ACDC existence (Note that Jimmy Barnes was also in this band), Zoot (Rick Springfield was a guitarist in this band long before he sang Jessie's Girl), INXS, Cold Chisel, Russell Mossis, Jeff St John, Doug Parkinson, Sherbert, The Angels, Midnight Oil, Rose Tattoo, Skyhooks, The Seekers, Helen Reddy, Olivia Newton-John, Marcia Hines, and Tina Arena, Kate Ceberano. More recent female stars including Delta Goodrem, Jessica Mauboy, Dami Im, and Jimmy's daughter Mahalia Barnes. I feel like I am missing quite a lot 🤣
@@michaelgoyettemusic Haha, it's a long list, but I am sure my fellow Aussues could add it it. How did I miss Colin Hay's band Men at Work? I am disappointed in myself now 😔
Bon was not the original singer of ACDC, he was the second. Believe it or not, they started out more of a glam band. There is a video clip, more than one actually with the original singer. The song sounds more like something that Hush should've released. ACDC was a good band, but the front man didn't have that stage persona, when Bon came along, the band was complete. The video with the original singer is on TH-cam. I was in a hotel room and someone said how Bon was the first ACDC Front man, I got into an argument with them. They all told me that I was full of it. But it was a hotel that bands stayed at in Bondi and I just rang one of the older crew guys and he confirmed it. Everyone believed that Bon was the first Front man, nope. That was in about 82. The first singer Dave something only lasted a few weeks, maybe a month. I do know that I never heard of him again. Just looked at it, Dave Evans was the first Front man.
This 1980 ensemble is full of deep, dark and mysterious rabbit holes. The top 5 include Jimmy and Cold Chisel as you would already know....... but also Ian Moss and Don Walker who are both original members of Cold Chisel the “ heavy metal” band that formed about 1973 and included Jimmy’s brother , John Swan , as frontman and singer. Don Walker wrote most of Cold Chisels songs and was the bands pianist / organist as well as their musical director ...... even when a heavy metal band. lol Ian was the lead guitarist and 2nd lead singer. Renee Geyer is another rabbit hole worth worth discovery......but I prefer the older stuff as it much better performance wise than the later videos. Renee is regarded as Australia’s first lady of soul.......although I believe Wendy Saddington was the original and the best in Australia. Wendy is another rabbit hole worth exploring but maybe not so deep as she rarely recorded anything....... she was an amateur who mostly filled in for sick and/or absent singers, male and female, and who always blew the audience away with her soulful brilliance....... except in her “ clown “ period when she delighted herself by being too weird for most people’s tastes. lol Do yourself a favour and sample Wendy Saddington, Wendy’s Song and Motherless Child.......but not the “ clown “ videos..... the others are better, live or promotional videos. If you like, then explore her videos with Jeff St. John and The CopperWine. St.John was confined to a wheelchair his entire life but had a big voice..... the concert to be filmed he couldn’t perform , but Wendy filled in , and became the 2nd lead singer for a while...... she was too good to be asked to leave. lol
Yes has some of the most amazing musicians from Australia, it is a who's who of Aussie rock royalty. Renee Geyer the female singer has more soul in her little finger than most can ever achieve. Please do yourself a favour and go down that rabbit hole. Andrew Durant was a guitarist/ harmonicist/ backing vocals who passed away from cancer at the young age of 25. He was much loved in the industry and this was a benefit concert with all benefits going to the Andrew Durant cancer research foundation.
@@michaelgoyettemusic she has been described (when she was 25) as a 60 year old black man from Alabama in a white women's body. She can obviously sing many genre and did put out some pop songs in the 70's but always came back to what she loved. Blues and jazz with soul. Normally in smaller intimate clubs. Unfortunately she passed away earlier this year. Her catalogue is vast but anything from the basement will get a good quality recording. Have had the pleasure of seeing her live a few times in the last 40 years. Love your channel
For the GOAT of Australian music and a top level world singer, a vocally gymnastic genius , check out JOHN FARNHAM, always LIVE' who sings in over 20 genres. And for one of the best guitarists in the world, check out Australian, Tommy Emmanuel, with his own composition, 'Initiation'.
I’ve heard John Farnham. His song The Voice was a big hit here……but I’d love to hear more. I’ve studied Tommy for years but I haven’t heard that song. So thanks.
You haven't done Bow River?! It was never one of their big hits, back in the day, but it stood the test of time. I know others have suggested it, but it really shows the band as a whole. Blues/rock - th-cam.com/video/TdVRNDnTKTU/w-d-xo.html
I just noticed you have that icon next to your handle!! 🙏 ❤️ 🍻 thanks so much, it allows me to do more of what I’m doing!! Your requests no longer go on the long list….expect a reaction in the coming days. Thanks again.
When Jimmy and Renee Geyer sing together at the end. Goosebumps. RIP Renee and Broderick Smith 2023.
It is very powerful for sure. ❤️

It was the Andy Durant memorial concert. A mix of Australian artist playing a tribute to the late Andy Durant. WOW, what a concert!
I used to have this album of Andy Durant memorial concert
Definitely some OZ music royalty on that stage. A farewell memorial concert for another music legend
I’ve been taught some of the basics by a channel member who saw it early….it’s very good use of all the talent. 🍻
Just great! Memories flooding in. Aussie rockers from my era.
Thanks 🙏🏽 for this reaction.❤

Her arrogance was a problem, so was her use of heroin.
Boom. Showtime

After a glimpse of Renee Iam sure you will do more. "it's a man's world" at the basement is a good place to start
There are a few I want to see more of. Renee included. ❤️
@@michaelgoyettemusic she has been described (when she was 25) as a 60 year old black man from Alabama in a white women's body.
She can obviously sing many genre and did put out some pop songs in the 70's but always came back to what she loved. Blues and jazz with soul. Normally in smaller intimate clubs.
Unfortunately she passed away earlier this year. Her catalogue is vast but anything from the basement will get a good quality recording.
Have had the pleasure of seeing her live a few times in the last 40 years. Love your channel
Yo Awesome 👌
💯 yo
For the GOAT of Australian music and a top level world singer, a vocally gymnastic genius , check out JOHN FARNHAM, always LIVE' who sings in over 20 genres.
And for one of the best guitarists in the world, check out Australian, Tommy Emmanuel, with his own composition, 'Initiation'.
I’ve heard John Farnham. His song The Voice was a big hit here……but I’d love to hear more.
I’ve studied Tommy for years but I haven’t heard that song. So thanks.
🔥 great song 🫶 fitting tribute… Yo

Jimmys the one with gravel in his throat.
Of course!! 😂 ❤️
Please check out Rene Geyer's beautiful voice. You won't be disappointed.
Is she Australian?
@michaelgoyettemusic Yes, she is. She sang with Jimmy in this clip.
The best version is from 1983 just Cold Chisel
I’ll bet. I’ve already seen a couple from that show I think. ❤️
Yeah this is ok in comparison!
You haven't done Bow River?! It was never one of their big hits, back in the day, but it stood the test of time. I know others have suggested it, but it really shows the band as a whole. Blues/rock - th-cam.com/video/TdVRNDnTKTU/w-d-xo.html
I just noticed you have that icon next to your handle!! 🙏 ❤️ 🍻 thanks so much, it allows me to do more of what I’m doing!! Your requests no longer go on the long list….expect a reaction in the coming days. Thanks again.
@@michaelgoyettemusic Oh, yes, you must react to Cold Chisel doing' BOW RIVER' at the Ringside concert. It's a WOW !!!
