This is late (he passed over a week ago), but Ross Hannaford who was one of the true originals on the Oz music scene has been lost to cancer. His playing credits include Daddy Cool, Billy-T, Paul Madigan & the Humans and busking in the streets of our town (Melbourne). His guitar playing was sublime, his vocals rich and he would always share his music through a genuine love of the craft as opposed to it being a means to make money.
Search him up on YouTube and wander through the list of clips... I'm sure the vast majority of non-Antipodean members of this forum would never have heard of Ross or had the opportunity to hear his music, but here's a couple to get you started .
