Another sad sort of a program today, paying tribute to David McComb
who passed away two days ago, a week before his 37th birthday. I
didn’t know David very well, but admired him from afar, and remember
how much his music meant to me, especially his early work with the
Triffids, which was the soundtrack to a good part of my adolescent
angst. This summer is going to go down in history as a tragic time for
the Melbourne music community – too many talented people leaving us,
too soon.
It was a joy to have Lisa Miller perform live in the studio. Without a
doubt one of Australia’s greatest singer-songwriters, why she isn’t as
famous and well-loved as, say, Paul Kelly is completely beyond me.
