This is the last song written by Andy Durant, on his deathbed , with cancer, at age 25.He had the potential to become one of Australias foremost song writers RIP Andy
Thanks so much for reacting to my request, Nick. Ocean Deep has long been my favourite Australian song. I believe that Andy Durant wrote this on his death bed, aged 25. Broderick Smith, a very underrated singer, absolutely does it justice. Glad you liked it.
Thanks for requesting! My uncle Malcolm put on the show for his dear friend Andy so I was pleased to see it being loved in 2022.
@@rent_a_cynic2662 as I said, my favourite Australian song. What a concert! I didn’t see it live, but I have the DVD. The best of the best.
Oh now I might have to dig out this album for a listen. Thanks for the reminder.
Hi Donna!! It’s Tracy R from Dinah Pde 😁
Great request for Nick, one of my favourites too. Were you still at the school when Stars played at the lunchtime concert? People still don’t believe me when I tell them AC/DC played a show at our school lol
@@fadedjeans61 hi Tracy! How are you? I remember AC/DC playing very well, but sadly, not the Stars. ☹️ I do remember Hush though. How lucky were we??!!
Andrew Durant passed away, he was a member of the band Stars and many of Australia's top acts at the time got together and put on a concert as a tribute to him.
Broderick Smith (born 17 February 1948)[1] is an English-born Australian multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter and sometime actor. He was a member of 1970s bands Sundown, Carson and the Dingoes, 1980s Broderick Smith's Big Combo and he has recorded and performed solo and in duos. He acted on stage in the 1973 Australian version of the rock opera, Tommy, and in minor roles in 1990s TV series, Blue Heelers, Snowy River: The McGregor Saga and State Coroner. Smith has been involved with the writing of some 200 songs and has run workshops on song writing, harmonica and vocals. He is the father of Ambrose Kenny-Smith, who has provided vocals, harmonica and keyboards for the rock band King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard since their formation in 2010. Peace out.
Awesome Steve. Love your comments. You have great knowledge of Aussie music.
Will never forget the night I saw Broderick Smith at Enfield Boulevard in Sydney live. The best live performance of any Aussie band I ever saw EVER!!!
Sad to hear he died a few months ago. Truly one of the greatest Aussie talents. Loved him ❤
Broderick Smiths big Combo and his early band the Dingoes are very underrated, even here in their native Australia but I always like them. Way out West is a great track.
I do believe that he was in Carson before The Dingoes.
@@stephenanthony6508 He was but my first experience of him was in the Dingoes.
THANKYOU to @Donna Chatterton for requesting this! Brod has been my favourite Aust artist for 40 yrs, his voice is beautiful. I have been hoping he would feature here with this, his performance gives the lyrics every bit of justice. Andy Durrant was so young when he passed, I can't imagine what he was feeling when he wrote these words. So wise and calm ... the acceptance and peace for what is to come is humbling. RIP Andy
I was his stage roadie on a tour. We did a pub in Bendigo, they had noise problems with the neighbours. We ended up turning off the pa system and Broderick just walked around the room singing arcopello. Man, his voice is amazing. He supported U2, I can attest the fact that one of their crew said to me " these guys are fucking brilliant ".
Absolutely love Brod singing this one. His finest moment I think.❤🎶🎶🎶
The beauty and gutt wrenching emotion of this song in the lyrics. Written on his death bed , the analogy of trying to stay afloat in a wild sea battering his body ( sufferring cancer) and anticipating the more peaceful seas and beautiful sunny distant shores of afterlife (when he passes and leaves behind the suffering) brings tears to me eyes nearly every time. Though I can't be absolutely sure, this is my interpretation of what the lyrics mean, and now Dear Broderick has just passed also. 😢
As others have mentioned, this was a memorial concert for Andrew Durant who wrote the songs performed at the concert. He died of melanoma cancer and was only young. He was a member of a band called Stars and this concert was performed as a tribute to Andy, by them and several guest artists, such as Broderick Smith, Jimmy Barnes, Renee Geyer, Richard Clapton and others. A few of the songs, including this one were written during the time he knew he was dying. I was lucky enough to be at that concert.
Only 25 years old. 😔🥰
Andrew Durant was an Aussie singer, songwriter and session muso (multi instrumentalist) for heaps of Aussie bands. He died young of cancer so everyone that knew him put on this concert and released the album. I think to raise money for his family.
Broderick headed a great blues band in the early 70s . The band was called Carson. Broderick is also a fantastic harp player.
Very sad to hear of Broderick Smith passing at 75yo this week.
May he RIP
Hi Nick - i think you may have already reacted to a song from this show? Jimmy Barnes, Renee Geyer etc doing Knocking on Heavens Door ?
BTW I'm a fan of Brod Smith. He has been around since 1970 (maybe earlier?) - in bands Carson,The Dingoes, Brod Smith's Big Combo etc. I hope you can find "My Fathers Hands". Love it, an Aussie tribute. Prefer it over the GangaJang song "Sounds of Then" which was a bigger hit in a similar tribute to Australia vein.
I still weep everytime i hear this. Gives me the Chills .. Peace & Calm ⛵️ 🌊 🌬
I'm from Adelaide and played in another band with Andrew Durant back in the late 60s. He died of cancer soon after. Great band , all Australian musicians, most from our town ( Adelaide). Broderick has a great voice. Malcolm Eastick on guitar is a legend. Stars - Andrew's band - would've made Cold Chisel and many other bands from Adelaide a great place which irt was at that time. Thanks for asking Donna. I have the whole concert on DVD. Possibly the last one.
Thank you for the review of Ocean Deep. Andy was a dear friend. My husband was the drummer and he loved seeing your reaction.
What an absolutely beautiful song..
Also, thank you for being so raw with your reactions 😂 Please never stop being who you truly are! Your personality makes me smile and your soul is as beautiful as this song.
Peace and love my brother ❤️🇦🇺

Andrew MacLeish Durant (2 October 1954 - 6 May 1980) was an Australian musician-songwriter. He was a member of country rock group Stars (1976-79) providing guitar, harmonica, and backing vocals. He was also a session and backing musician for a range of artists. He died of cancer, aged 25. On 19 August 1980 a tribute performance was held in his honour, with a live double-album recorded by various artists, Andrew Durant Memorial Concert, which was released on 9 March 1981. All but three tracks were written by Durant (and two of those were co-written by Durant). It peaked at No. 8 on the Australian Kent Music Report Albums Chart and reached No. 40 on the End of Year Top 100 Albums Chart for 1981.
Many of Andy’s songs had a peaceful ethereal quality. Check out his band Stars. Songs such as “Look After Yourself” with Andy on guitar sharing lead vocals, “The Last of The Riverboats”, and “West is the Way”. He was considered by his music colleagues, a genius. RIP Andy.
As a young git, WEST was my go to when no headbanging. Beautiful song.
What wonderful carefree times we lived through.
I miss the live gigs and that era of musicians.
Jupiter Creek is another song Broderick sang at the concert absolutely amazing
1 of my favourite songs by Andrew Durant but Broderick Smith voice at the concert just amazing makes the hair on your neck tingle i will be requesting to my family to play Ocean Deep at my Euology with a couple of my other favourites RIP Broderick ,Andrew Durant
And now we’ve lost the amazing Broderick Smith. Too sad. What a loss.
Got this album on vinyl since it came out. Broderick's voice has always amazed me, especially in the Dingoes. Heard him live at Festival Hall, Melbourne and the voice as on song.
A big favourite of mine Broderiuck Smith ,The Dingos and other bands .What a voice he had .
Andrew MacLeish Durant was an Australian musician-songwriter. He was a member of country rock group Stars, providing guitar, harmonica, and backing vocals. He was also a session and backing musician for a range of artists. He was well-known and respected in the music industry. He died of cancer, in May, 1980, aged 25. Memorial concert was held in August, 1980 at the Palais Theatre, St. Kilda, Melbourne, Australia. Artists included Australian Artists: Brod, Jimmy Barnes, Renee Geyer, Richard Clapton and others.
Broderick Smith was an English-born Australian (moved to Australia as a kid) multi-instrumentalist, (particularly harmonica-we called 'harp' then), singer-songwriter, music teacher and sometime actor. He was a member of 1960's band Adderley Smith Blues Band (when he was about 18), 1970s bands Sundown, Carson and the Dingoes, the 1980s Broderick Smith's Big Combo, and he recorded and performed solo and in duos. He also had 2 singles on the radio in 1973, while he was with Carson. The Dingoes went to Canada and were successful there. Broderick also played 'the father' in the Melbourne production of The Who's 'Tommy' rock opera at the Myer Music Bowl. When I first heard his single record on the radio, I thought it was a negro singer not the Broderick I know from my teenage years. When he sang loudly, the sound came from the back of his throat and reminded me of black singers. Not only good looking but a real gentleman and very respected in the music world. He died peacefully on 30th April 2023 aged 75.
Well known songs: On his own 'Going On Down To The End Of The World' and 'Yesterday It Rained'.. With Carson 'Boogie'. With Dingoes 'Way Out West' and 'Boy On The Run'. With Broderick Smith's Big Combo 'Faded Roses' and 'My Father's Hands' (Lucky To Be An Australian).
Such a sad song, Andy Durant was suffering from terminal cancer, and these were his dying thoughts
YES ….. absolutely fantastic…. Thanks for reacting to this brilliant performance by Broderick Smith.. Ocean Deep…. Was one of Andrew Durant’s final songs …. The lyrics talk about his body and how he was feeling towards the end of his life ( Skin Cancer aged 24) …… Wrote a lot of Songs for … STARS… Australian band …..if you want another beautiful song….. WEST IS THE WAY…. Andrew Durant Lead Vocal…..video clip.
Richard Clapton is playing in that guitar ensemble. Check him out someday. Capricorn Dancer is my fav of his but he had a few hits back in the ‘70’s.
RIP Brod Smith.
The stage is filled with Aussie musicians for the memorial concert for Andrew Durant who passed away.
RIP Broderick Smith
Stars were and are one of my favorite bands their album Paradise is still on my play list and every song on it brilliant Andy was a great songwriter and Brodrick Smith and the Dingoes very underrated band so great time in Australian music Chain Matt Taylor Ayers Rock and Madderlake a great era of OZ rock
One of my all time favourite songs/performances.
Saw Broderick Smith live in Melbourne at the Down Under Wine Bar South Yarra in the 80s.
An intimate gig, he was a few meters from me.
And yes, it was amazing.
I'm 61 aussie.. remember the concert and the band stars... Andrew Durant died too young... still left some great music, and Aussie bands did concert for cancer... was awesome..
RIP Brod 😥
❤️
🌹
🇦🇺🎼🎶
I’d forgotten how good hey was. Lovely version of this beautiful song. Very appropriate for the occasion.
The whole memorial concert..
Check out Richard Clapton “Girls on the avenue”
Broderick Smith has been around since way back when. Fantastic artist!♥️
Check out him with Carson,doing 'Carson Boogie', Live at Sunbury Festival(black & white video). Also Broderick Smiths Big Combo doing 'Faded Roses'.Also 'Way Out West' with his band The Dingoes ..Please,of course 😊✌️♥️
One of my very favourite voices of the 70s from Carson at Sunbury, to the Dingoes. An awesome vocalist and musician.
But lm sure you have missed out on seeing a much better quality video of this performance.
Hope you get to see more of him.
I’m disappointed that more Aussies haven’t viewed this video.
I'm 55, I was born in 1967 in Sydney Australia,... I lived in Australia until I was 35 & have lived in America for 20 years & am now a US Citizen,... I miss Australia of yester year :(
Australia had so much talent for such a small population :)
When I was young & working around Sydney, I enjoyed the old guys,... That Generation of WW2 guys & a little after were "The Quiet Achievers",... No fuss, no bragging, no Soap Box, no Chest Beating & anyone who did got sorted by their peers,... There was none of this modern day hype, Aussies just did their thing quietly & did it very well.
I miss that Australia but sadly I can't talk to most Aussies anymore,... Far too many intolerant, arrogant, loud mouthed dicks.
It all went to shit once blokes started drinking wine.
@@ross4970 🤣
This is one of my "Chill songs". As you say it makes you feel Calm. My other favourite one is LRB (Little River Band) Cool Change with Glenn Shorrock singing. Another of Australia's Great 70s-80s bands but they Did make it Big in the US. In fact sadly, one (temporary American ) guitarist, Steve someone, dplit from the band, claimed the name LRB and stole their licence on their song catalogue. On RUclips look for the Real Little River Band, or Birtles, Shorrock and Goble, the 3 founding Australia n members, and Grrrrrr to the imposters 🤨
Sadly Broderick passed away last month.
You also check out 'Way Out West" Broderick as the frontman in the Dingoes.
He also was an exceptional harmonica player.
'The minsters has left us forever'.
i remember this album. awesome
Broderick passed away a few weeks ago. RIP BROD. My thoughts are with his family and friends.
Stars... "look after yourself"
Andrew Durant was the writer and guitarist/ backup vocalist.. sadly died of cancer... lost talent.
Saw them live at a pub in 70s. Aussie music.
RIP Broderick ❤
Brodrick should of been alot bigger in the industry then he was
Beautiful
I love you discovering classic Aussie rock. You need to listen to Skyhooks, Women in Uniform
Interesting to note that Broderick's son Ambose is the front man for The Murlocs and Ambose is also a member of King Gizzard and Lizard Wizard. Ambose also plays the harp and is an multi-instrumentalists
Awesome Nick! Love Broderick Smith, His Big Combo, and The Dingoes. Faded Roses ruclips.net/video/hV9VSfneZZk/видео.html Way Out West ruclips.net/video/919phJQtlK8/видео.html and My Father's Hands ruclips.net/video/U_NWB4j4UJc/видео.html are some great songs of his 😍
You have commented on someone singing at the Andy Durant memorial a while back.
RIP Broderick Smith.
have you looked at Faded Roses yet?
Now that's a song!
You've done a reaction of Jimmy's from the same concert
RIP Brod xxx 30/4/23
The Greek guy with the sunglasses at the front of the stage, playing guitar, is another absolute Aussie legend, Richard Clapton. Deep Water, I am an Island just to name a few.
Richards real name is Terry Wong
Richard is not Greek. His father was Australian Chinese and his mother was of Slavic origins I believe. He is awesome though, even now in his seventies, great voice, entertainer and songwriter
Sadly, Broderick passed yesterday, aged 75. Australia has lost one of our great talents
Is that Richard Clapton on the chair on the guitar? The one with the glasses.
Sure is.
Yep
Broderick Smith passed away recently aged 75 years
