RIP Hillman. Part of Australian music history. Time to go listen to the music of a generation.

Loved the weaving bass line in Blue Sky Mine.

Might have to roll some tracks in memory and pretty sure one cd is already in the car stereo selector ready to spin. First caught up with them on Head Injuries and really got into them with 10,9,8,7..........
