'Kev, the self-confessed knock-around bloke, is without doubt Australia's pre-eminent singer/songwriter. To me he stands at the apex of successful and influential musicians, but I suspect his real contribution to the music industry will not be fully appreciated by all Austrlians until well after he has retired to the comfort of his rural retreat on the Darling Downs.'
