Slim dusty the best ever Australian country music singer r.i.p. slim

Pear country music leaden no one comes close slim 🌹🌹🌹

What a fabulous poet and singer Slim Dusty was. This beautiful song exactly describes the wonderful Australian bush which I experienced first hand in 1969/70 when driving around and across the entire country sleeping under canvas every night. I shall never forget that incredible experience.

This song describes our great Southern Land of Australia to a tee, especially our unique Bushland. Can you imagine a lonely Ausie soldier trying to explain to his ally and comrade what Australia truly was like. Thanks Mack Cormack and thanks Slim dusty.

Australia is a beautiful place to live in especially when you live out in the bush

I still sing this one , as i learned it at 10

If you want to know what the real Australia is like just listen to these lyrics. Slim absolutely nails it!

Slim Dusty,the best country singer about Australia

no one will ever beat this.

Slim should feature on one of our (currency) $ notes

Slim dusty the one n only true Australian country singer .and I was also very lucky to meet slim dusty when I was just 12.years old and my father Barron plumb brought me his latest album at the time and I got slim to sighn it 4 me I am now 34 years old and my father has passed away 7.years ago now just one of a great memory of my late father and my idol slim dusty

Slim describes the things you miss when you are overseas, makes you homesick for our great land down under, I have travelled all over the world but there is no place that comes anywhere near Australia, and Slim is part of that.

I'm so fortunate to live exactly where he describes, old blue mountains in the view, locals even call this area God's Country

❤🇮🇩 *love from Indonesia 👍nice enjoy*

Why have I not ever heard this guy before? Would loved to have heard him perform with Willie Nelson? A new fan from the U.S.

still rocking slim RIP

I first heard this song when I was a National Serviceman in the 60's. It still touches the heart now the same way it did back then. Thank you Slim.

I was born in Texas but I feel like Australia could have been my home. I can almost feel the goodness of the people. I think Slim Dusty personifies your great country.

Another great song from the one and only late great Slim RIP

Barbara and Joe listening today 11th November 2023

I saw the beautiful blue mountains today in all their glory, a clear winters day in western Sydney, the blue mountains in the distance

Another great song from Mack Cormack sung as only Slim could. This truely identifies rural Australia.

If you want to change Australia National Anthem. This is it

I reside in this country, brilliant slim.

LOVE SINGING THIS ONE. GOD BLESS SLIM DUSTY

Got a daughter and grandchildren in Melbourne which I have visited several times. During my first visit in 1999, I visited a record shop and heard some delightful music. The shop lady said it was Tony O'Connors' cd "Of Dreams and Discoveries". I bought one and confirm it is played regularly. If any Australian has it, I would be delightted for his opinion. Kind regards from England. August, 2023.

AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺 BEAUTIFUL

I've always loved this song. I think It featured on live in Wagga Wagga. Barry Thornton at his best. If you like this then listen to "Homestead of my dreams" by Smokey Dawson and another Slim number "when the moon across the bushland beams". All these invoke memories of my youth when Slim ruled and I live way outback. I still can't look at a full moon without thinking if that beautiful song.

the best ever, the aussie bush, my home .

the greatest ever, our home, Australia.

ABSOLUTELY ENJOYABLE, THE COUNTRY SOUND OF MR. DUSTY!.....I FEEL AGAIN IN AUSTRALIA, MY DEAR AUSTRALIA, WHERE I LIVED FOR NINE YEARS....

A TRULY BEAUTIFUL SONG, FOR TOSE IN AMERICA ITS HAVE YOU EVER SMELT NAPALM IN THE MORNING, R I P S D.

Have you ever seen a Wheatfield in the morning as the dawn wind ripples through the golden grain . Yes seen the dawn break over Wheat fields going to Wangaratta

Awesome, bravo champ, You're the Best. Power to the People.

Great album, Thank you!!!

Love you slim dusty

2020 Feb 1 a place of Home, is where we dearly clinged to both in our hearts and ears what can't be seen can almost be heard clearly like those of the railroad cars rumbling by. darkness all around and the conversation that echoes through the silent is but those of the Great Horn Owls sounds that it knows so well. the many noises of the motorcars can rock me to sleep tonight i lay awake the thought of my homeLand far away in the Island country Singapura where the millions of stars lights up the table of the heavens. only stories i knew were those said by father whose father was a farmer who tilled the Land before Sunrise to after Sundown. i am a city deweller whose sat above the clouds flown by another and watched the delta flying formation of fighter planes over the Ocean of which i had putted together along with many others who had done before. God's country is where He has placed us, from the shores of the Palm trees to the Ridges of the Rocky places because i too has walked the trails of the eastern Rockie Mountains if God so willing i will be doing the same watching more of the Sunrise on golden wheat fields to the colours of the manys lakes brightly displayed hour by hour on the foothills of the Canadian Rockies.

correction orbodman homestead of my dreams was stan coster

Slim dusty is to be credited with uniting the Nation of Australia and description actually acturat please

Lyrics : A Picture of Home Lyrics My story swings around the bunch of soldiers, Resting close behind the battle scene, There were men from many nations represented, A rugged cup united nations team, They spoke about their own beloved homeland, Resting far from all the tortured battle scenes On this day the lad who claimed the most attention A young Australian soldier who began. Oh,I have never claimed to be a Namatjira, I have never taken up the painters brush, But in words, my lads, I'll paint for you a picture, Of my homeland in the wide Australian bush. Have you ever seen the western plains at sundown? And the firey streaks that seem to blaze across And then later in the evenin' see a ghost gum And then silently we meet the Southern Cross? Have you ever heard the wild swan in it's calling, In the stillness of some far away lagoon? Or seen the place where brumbies come to water? They always come at the rising of the moon. Have you ever wandered through some burning gully In springtime when the wattles are in bloom? If you've never, then you've never known the sweetness, That fills the air around with it's perfume. Have you ever gazed upon a peaceful homestead, With the old Blue Mountains standing in the view, See the homestead cattle grazin' by the river, From the hillside bounds an old man kangaroo, In the ev'nin, see the smoke rise from the chimney, Tells that day is done and soon its time for tea, Hear the jackass laughter ringing through the bushland? Well that's God's own country, and home sweet home to me. Have you ever seen a wheat field in the morning, When the dawn wind ripples through the golden grain, Or wandered through the farmlands in the dawn time, And smelt their earthly sweetness after rain? Oh, I have never claimed to be a Namatjira, As I'd said before, I've never used a brush, But I hope, my lads, I've painted you a picture, Of my homeland in the wide Australian bush

NAMATJIRA
