PLEASE GIVE US A DECENT ARTICLE ON THIS AUSTRALIAN PHENOMENON

It would be great if we had at least some semblance of a genuine article on this brilliant Australian performer, song-writer, TV host. He was a regular smash hit in the pop and country music charts during the 60's, 70's and 80's, showing great longevity of popularity ... and something of his work with the successful group "Jigsaw", also - the Australian group, which had a top hit among others in, "Yellow River", during the 70's. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.219.248.171 (talk) 22:38, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No ROLF HARRIS eitherLOLOL!!! This would be a hopeless representation of Australian singers/performers ... Really. Harris has probably been our HUGEST Export over the past 40 years or so. He's not even listed??!! Frank Ifield in UK was probably bigger than Farnham in the US - he's not listed either. (121.219.248.171 (talk) 00:50, 4 January 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Recent major edits

I've finished my attempt at making improvements to the article. For other editors: The albums and EPs tables need wikifying. Further details of post-1970s career & personal life would help. Further discussion of his style, songwriting, producing &c is needed. I've self-assessed the article as C-class.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 04:23, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
