Good old song 😂

Good old song 😂

Have enjoyed their music for decades.i came from the same area...gympie

Such a funny song, had never heard it before it was on the radio today.

❤

This song was written by my father, Les Dalkin in the 1960s.

❤️🎶

I remember Mr. Fabian, our farm was just down from his, I would come by with pop and talk about music for hours. Its good to see Mr Fabian as a young fellow.

The answer is in the first verse - it was Ronald's wife Nancy-Lou. She cooked the stew ... so there you are. I daresay that might be a reference to a certain US president?

Wish I could play yidaki like that!

I remember hearing this up at Noosa during the September holidays of 1981. I think it was hey hey it's Saturday

Swagman, I think the time has come Swagman, your race has all but run Swagman, oh, it's time to take your bluey home. It's raining, your body aches with cold Complaining? Complaints are growing old So swagman, oh, it's time to take your bluey home. You've seen the mountains, seen the streams, Laid your pathful, filled your dreams Lived the life that most men only dream, So listen now as the dingo howls Now's the time to take your bows, You don't have to live here all alone. Swagman, oh, it's time to take your bluey home. Swagman, I think the time has come Swagman, your race has all but run Swagman, oh, it's time to take your bluey home. It's raining, your body aches with cold Complaining? Complaints are growing old So swagman, oh, it's time to take your bluey home.

Thank you so much for uploading this! My very elderly grandfather was nostalgic for forgotten folk songs of his youth and was so overjoyed to be able to hear this one again

As a child, almost every Xmas, we as a family used to go on a camping holiday in Dad's then new Chesney caravan at Hervey Bay at Torguay or Scarness beach front Esplanade camping grounds. Almost every night we used to have fish and chips at the Torguay Hotel beer garden and there we watched the Webb Brothers perform. Extrovert Dad became friends with the Webb Brothers over the years and drank pots of beer with them at our table in between songs. Geez, they were great days as a child, and as a child I loved their performances at the then Torquay Hotel beer garden. I am 67 years of age now and Dad has since passed away! I can remember those days as clear as a bell, as I do the roller skating at the little open air Scarness Skating Rink on the beach front!

The best part of this song is hearing the names of the old politicians of the day. Ah yes, Ronald Reagan, Malcolm Fraser, Doug Anthony, Joh Bjelke-Petersen - gone but not forgotten!

My brother built a house for one of The Webb Bros.

Anyone have Bicycle Wreck by Webb Brothers? It is listed here but they don't have it.

I randomly taped this off the radio in Dunedin back then...always remember this song...classic

What a lovely song. I'd never heard it before, or of the Webb brothers, but I am definitely a fan now.

1981 - SEPTEMBER It started with an eagled-eyed food inspector on the scene in San Diego, California on July 27,1981 and almost destroyed the $1 billion a year beef export trade of Australia. A vigilant food inspector became suspicious of three frozen blocks of imported Australian beef that looked "darker and stringier" than bona fide boneless beef should be. Yep Kangaroo Meat! Also on the scene, what RCA Australia described at the time as “the fastest released and fastest selling record they had ever handled in Australia” had been released by The Webb Brothers. Marius Webb penned the lyrics "The Colonel put the lickin' in the chicken, but who put the Roo in the stew?"Recorded in Brisbane's Sunshine Studio, the song was released with RCA Sydney. Due to it's topical nature, everything about the song was done quickly to coincide with the beef scandal. It was written, recorded and released as a single within ten days - climbed to # 7 on 4BK Music’s chart.

It is based on a roo meat scandel on OZ.

hello

hey, did u happen to find out who actually put the roo in the stew?

I'm pretty sure the Webb brothers ran a "Hootenanny" near Gympie in 1966, it was the year we left Gymoie. I was too young to go, but I knew someone who did. Might have been at Widgee, not Amamoor though

their music is very nice, relaxing -due to a book i was reading i have found their songs a real delight thanks xo

My second favourite of theirs ... my favourite is The June Rose Waltz

1983??

Saw these guys in 1974 at the Lodge Hotel in Hanmer Springs - they were great - good to hear that they are still around!!!

My favourite song :)

I absolutely LOVE this song!!! It makes me smile and laugh!!! Thank you Webb Brothers for making this little Yank girl's day!!!

thats right pyro fella, im proud to call marius my grandfather

I'm from New Zealand, but I've been to Australia once - Adelaide, when I was almost 13 (late January, 2005), for a week.

Ooooh, I like this :D

YAH!!!! Thanks @ bub24feb for posting this up on youTube for us!! :D

Thank you. I remember this song from when I was a little girl on the Sunday request radio shhow. Beautiful

If I remember correctly the brothers helped pioneer the Gympie Muster - they were a great trio

Very nice :) bub24feb!! Have you got "who put the roo in the Stew", I haven't heard that since I was a kid!!

I love this great bit of Aussie country ! There is a very good instrumental version of it by Barry Thornton, who played guitar for many years with Slim Dusty.

This music is a part of my life thank you so much for bringing back these songs
