Post 689 - Bill & Boyd - It's A Small World - Meanwhile Back In Abeline

On their return to Australia, Bill & Boyd established themselves as a top club act. In 1970, they joined Ron Tudor's newly formed Fable label. Their first release, in July 1970, was a version of "It's A Small World" b/w “Meanwhile Back In Abeline” (FB 009) which, although a steady seller, didn't quite make the top 40. They had several releases of singles and albums over the next four years. It wasn't until 1975 that they had their most success, after recording a song called "Santa Never Made It into Darwin". The song documented the events of Cyclone Tracy that devastated the city of Darwin on Christmas Eve 1974. This single was Arranged and Produced by John Farrar.Flac
