MILESTONES AND MEMORIES
Twenty years ago this week, J.D. Fortune won the TV show Rock Star: INXS to become INXS’s new lead singer.
Helen Reddy scored her second US chart-topper when Delta Dawn hit number one this week in 1973.
AC/DC released their third album, Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, this week in 1976.
This week in 2003, Jet released their debut album, Get Born. It would sell nearly four million copies worldwide.
Ten years ago this week, Troye Sivan’s Wild topped the Aussie albums chart.
Happy Birthday to Jet drummer Chris Cester who is 44, and Monique Brumby who is 51, on September 16. And Tim Rogers is 56 on September 20.
And we remember the great Slim Dusty, who died of cancer, aged 76, this week in 2003. He had been working on his 106th album, Columbia Lane, which was posthumously released in 2004.
