The Men of Harlech "Charlie's Getting Married at Last" b/w "Tribute" (K-8312) which was the Queens favourite song in 1981. Here for you to download is that single recorded for Mushroom Records, produced by Ol' 55's Jim Manzie for Jim Manzie Productions at Trafalgar Studios in Sydney and engineered by Malcolm Devenish. I got a hold of this info from a band member - "The band were from Tasmania (apparently, it's the power pop band The Innocents, whose records don't usually sound like this) and the vocals are done by English-born Aussie rock legend Ted Mulry. Ted Mulry on lead vocal but he is not in the film clip We called ourselves The Men of Harlech because Charles was the Prince of Wales, and we wanted to play on the connection between Wales and Welsh miners' choirs. So we also put on a Welsh accent. I remember doing about 8 hours of radio interviews using a Welsh accent.it was filmed in the shunting tunnel of St.James Station in Sydney. I know this because I'm the guy with the pickaxe".
