In memory of Laurie’s Aunty
Renee, who passed away in October 2003, a beautiful lady with the purest of
souls, a true supporter of Laurie and his music, my adopted Aunty and true
friend for without her faith in Laurie’s music and her help along with Waza, Laurie’s cd “One Last
Round” may have remained Laurie’s
unfinished dream…… .Aunty Renee will be the Angel on the keyboard or maybe
the piano accordion….
Laurie’s loyal little team with Aunty Renee in charge we were one hell
of a team
Edna
Allen’s scrap books Laurie’s
gig diaries A lot of the information on these pages
came from these scrapbooks and diaries.
Go-Set!!
Magazine.
I have obtained a lot of this information from the very popular
magazine Go-Set!!,
for those who are not aware, Go-Set!! was the
most popular magazine that came out
every 7days from February 1966 to August 1974, and I think should be
given a lot of
credit for what it did to help the artists of
the 60’s. It was like a bible to the fans of
Australian 60’s music, having the best of reporters like Ian (Molly) Meldrum and Stan
Rofe and many others interviewing the best
of the 60’s stars, feeding the fans of the day the much
needed information and the best photos that they (we) craved for. Thank you to Wendy Corbett Kelley for proof reading my page and
for her added suggestions, very much appreciated Wen.
( Wen.you could have made both Laurie and myself
speak real proper
for sure)….Thanks Wendy. |
