About this album

Johnny Farnham’s Greatest Hits is a sharp summary of John Farnham’s first pop breakthrough. Issued in 1976, this compilation gathers the songs that made him one of Australia’s best-known vocal stars, from the novelty smash Sadie (The Cleaning Lady) to later favourites such as Jamie and Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head. The set shows his easy command of light pop, cabaret charm and straightforward vocal warmth, tracing the material that built his early reputation before his later reinvention as a rock powerhouse. As an overview of his first chapter, it remains a useful snapshot of a major Australian hitmaker.
