A Very Barry Crocker Xmas 1989

Unheard since December 1989, Australian legend Barry Crocker live on the Maynard breakfast show on Triple J.

A Very Barry Crocker Xmas has is all, Barry sings with Adeva, advises you on personal security while travelling and gives some 1989 fashion tips.

Barry brings all the festive foolish fun and good humour he is known for as well as a Xmas tune from Damien Lovelock that Barry eventually loved.

Bananarama Interview 1989

April 1989 & Bananarama tour Australia for the first time.

Jacquie O’Sullivan, Sara Dallin and Keren Woodward turned up at Maynard’s Madd Club on the Monday night in Sydney, that is where the above photo was taken, about 2am.
