To me, this is a work of near genius and we charted it in 1975 on UK Records.

It went into the Top 30 and Top of the Pops offered him a slot but I could not persuade him to fly over from Australia to do the show.

After ages of nagging and questioning he finally admitted why not - he'd promised to take his young son fishing on his birthday and to attend his first day at a new school with him and he would not let him down! How could a mere hit compete?
