Manager Kenn Brodziak changed his stage name to John Farnham in 1980, and he released his first album under this banner Uncovered, featuring his version of The Beatles hit single "Help!". His career has mostly been as a solo artist but he replaced Glenn Shorrock as lead singer of Little River Band during 1982–1985.[4][5][6] Aside from solo releases, Farnham has recorded albums and duets with other artists or bands, including Tom Jones and Olivia Newton-John.[1][4]
Background
editFarnham was vocalist for The Mavericks from 1964,[4] by late 1965 he had joined Strings Unlimited,[3][4] In 1966, they recorded a three-track demo tape with Farnham on vocals, Stewart Male on lead guitar, Barry Roy on rhythm guitar, Mike Foenander on keyboards and Peter Foggie on drums.[7] Talent manager, Darryl Sambell, saw Strings Unlimited perform on 29 April 1967 and encouraged Farnham to go solo.[6][7] Farnham recorded an advertising jingle, "Susan Jones", for airline, Ansett-ANA, and signed a contract with EMI.[3][7] Farnham's debut single was a novelty song, "Sadie (The Cleaning Lady)", released in November 1967. His debut extended play, Johnny Farnham, followed in December, and his single peaked at No. 1 on the Australian National Singles Charts for five weeks in early 1968.[8] Selling 180,000 copies in Australia, "Sadie" was the highest selling single by an Australian artist of the decade.[6][9] Farnham's debut studio album, Sadie was issued in April 1968. Other No. 1 singles are "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head" in 1969–1970, "You're the Voice" in 1986 and "Age of Reason" in 1988;[10][11] and his No. 1 albums are Whispering Jack in 1986–1987, Age of Reason in 1988, Chain Reaction in 1990, Then Again in 1993, Anthology 1: Greatest Hits 1986-1997 in 1997, Highlights from The Main Event with Olivia Newton-John and with Anthony Warlow in 1998, 33⅓ in 2000, The Last Time in 2002 and in 2015 and Friends for Christmas.[10][11][12][13]
