This week, JVG’s theme for his RRR radio show was ‘George’.

Many will know I’m a big Rod Stewart fan, some even say I look a little like him (hmmmm).

I’m also a fan of protest songs – who would have thought that Rod would have been one of the first artists in the ’70s to pen a song about gay rights.

Onya Rod…

This week, JVG’s theme for the radio show was ‘Wisdom’.

I wrote this song years ago, ‘She Remembers Everything’, about a person who is spending some time in a kind of emotional cocoon – mulling things over, learning from experience – so it seemed the right kind of song for the theme.

As the band was playing another song with Georgie on the day, I thought I’d bash this one out alone. Took both Jon and me back to the early days of the show, in the late 90s, when I’d perform solo each week. Over 20 years ago!

Sheesh.

This week’s theme was ‘Theft’.

Kev Carmody is one of Australia’s great protest-song writers. This one, Thou Shalt Not Steal, takes the so-called moral lessons of the bible and throws them back in the face of the hypocrites.

We obviously need more protest and more protest-songs…

This week’s theme was ‘Ruby’.

In past segments, over the years, I’d already played Tom Waits’s ‘Ruby’s Arms’ and The Felice Bros’ ‘Ruby Mae’. I’d always been a fan of Melanie’s version of The Stones’ ‘Ruby Tuesday’ – so I thought we could give that a crack.

Luckily, Georgie Darvidis came in and saved the day.
