  • “G’day folks, welcome to my Famous Graves Down under series. However unusual it seems, it’s actually quite relaxing to walk around cemeteries taking in the history of their residents as well as the beautiful landscapes and majestic old graves. So I figured while I’m touring the graveyards and cemeteries throughout Australia, why not document it and bring you all along for the journey. Hopefully it inspires you to get out and explore the countryside, cemetery or no cemetery.

    Thanks so much for that great video, to see that they gave him his own special place with a little cross was nice to see. John was a manic person, but he helped all those who asked for anything, if he could give to them he did. Ahead of his time and sometimes his own worst enemy but he did try, without him there would be no Australian Rock n Roll icons as we know them....he didn't do too bad for a small bloke who once said "You can mock me and you may boo me, but you all paid your money too come and see me"....before starting his rendition of his famous song Shout....I didn't get to see him in the flesh but that my friends is what legends are made of. Peace and Love to everyone.....

    Cheers TJ, presume the cemetery is in Sydney. Don't think many people look past the glitzy Shout musical presently. Behind the fasade was a bloke with a scarred shnoz who absolutely took fans to town probably most recently @ Sunbury. This country has many Kings living & not. There's only 1 King who could shout.

      @@TJ_Beam I was there/here when J OK died, I was here when he had a horrendous car accident. John went through the windscreen at a time before safety glass and tore up his face dreadfully, as a matter of fact there is some where a documentary or movie that shows the actor playing John with his nose well to the left of its proper position a scare running from centre left of his for head down his nose and forking to ends on both cheeks. One side of that scare had flesh bunched of his for head and the other side had the same under an eye, the doctors must have sewn him up so quickly to stop the bleeding they had no time to worry about placement. It took three plastic surgery to put it right. John was always an up tight sort but the crash effected him mentally and it took strong seditives to settle him to sleep. His wife, some years later on the mid day show channel 9 stated that the night before he died she and John had the worst fight of their marriage. John was walking out of the kitchen as she cleaned up, be gone for a couple of minutes and then return to resume the argument before leaving again. He was dead the next morning. The autopsy said he had three time the recommended amount of seditive in his system three times was the number of times he left the kitchen and then came back. The autopsy said suicide but his wife said after the car accident he could forget any thing and every thing and she was sure he simply forgot he had take thre tablets twice and took them a third time. It was a long time ago but im sure my memory is at least fairly accurate.
