About this album
Mike Brady Presents: The Songs Of Football's Greatest Sons is a distinctive 1981 tribute album that turns Australian football folklore into warmly written folk-pop songs. Best known for his anthem Up There Cazaly, Brady applies the same melodic knack and plainspoken charm to portraits of celebrated players and personalities including Ron Barassi, Kevin Murray, Jack Dyer and Lou Richards. The record sits squarely in Australian popular culture, blending sporting reverence with storytelling that makes the heroes feel larger than life. As a snapshot of early-1980s local songwriting, it is both affectionate and distinctly of its era.
