G'day Sheba. That's him. Who do you have for us?

Cheers.

Russell James Hinze (19 June 1919 29 June 1991) was a politician in Queensland, Australia, in the 1970s and 1980s. He presided over an era of controversy that included the setting up of the Racing Development Fund, ministerial re-zonings and the licensing of Jupiters Casino. His career in public life spanned almost four decades, first in local government in the 1950s and 1960s, and then in the Queensland Legislative Assembly from 1966 to 1988. His exit from Parliament occurred amid allegations that he had received corrupt payments.

You've got it Jack over to you for a pic.

Lucky Starr was born as Leslie Morrison in 1940.[1][2] His father was a motor mechanic and his mother was a housewife, and he had a younger sister.[1] He attended Canterbury High School before starting an apprenticeship as an electrician.[2][3]

Two-and-a-half years later he began his rock and roll career in 1957 as Les Starr, lead singer and rhythm guitarist, of the Hepparays in Sydney.[4][5] Other members were Tony Caperero on lead guitar, Bruce Gurr on piano, Dave Taylor played bass guitar and Owen Smith provided drums and percussion.[4] Starr recalled how, "the guitarist in his band taught him [how to play] in five months."[6] After winning several talent quests, "someone idly punned that he was 'a lucky Starr'."[1]

Late in 1959, as Lucky Starr, he signed as a solo artist to Festival Records,[3] and in December he released a four-track extended play, Sentimental Journey.[7] For his early work he used the Hepparays as his backing band.[6] He followed with four singles in the next year.[4] He was a regular performer on television music and variety shows, Bandstand and Six O'Clock Rock, and took over from Johnny O'Keefe as host of the latter for a brief period in 1960, while O'Keefe was touring the United States.[4]

In May 1960 Morrison, aged 19, was involved in a romance with touring Mouseketeer, Cheryl Holdridge, who was under 16.[4][8][9] In May 1963 he recalled, "We corresponded when she went back to the States, and I decided then to follow her, somehow. Once, in 1961, I waited up all night to phone her when she was recovering from a tonsils operation. But we are not 'in love' any more, I guess."[1]

Starr released his cover version of the novelty, tongue-twisting single, "I've Been Everywhere", in early 1962, it was written by Geoff Mack, which name-drops numerous Australian towns.[4] It peaked at number one in Sydney in April.[4] "Spinner" from The Biz described the track, "It's a hard hitting novelty number with a slight C and W flavour. Full of gimmicks it features high velocity lyrics in which Lucky recites 120 towns in the Commonwealth... [He] sings each verse in one breath and you'll wonder how he does it when you hear it."[10] Adapted to American towns, it became a United States country music hit for Hank Snow after being released in September of that year.[4]
