Glenn was a remarkable, loyal and generous human being - the fact that he mortgaged his own home in the 80s to help launch Farnham back into the spotlight is testament to this! It’s not necessary to dredge up court issues from many years ago, as we all make mistakes and he certainly suffered for his. Glen was a gentle, sincere bloke, who was immensely good at what he did - we have him to thank for the awesome Little River Band, and our National treasure, John Farnham. Glenn will be sorely missed. My heart goes out to Gaynor and the kids - and to his extended family, John, Jill, Rob and James Farnham. Thank you Glenn for making the Australian music industry what it is today. Australia will hold you in our hearts forever ♥️

A remarkable man, along with Michael Gudinski built the Aussie Music Industry.....Gudinski had Barnsey and Kylie, Wheatley had Farnsey and Delta, Hard to pick who had the most successful 2, they had many others also, Gudinski with Skyhooks and Wheatley with Little River Band are my earliest musical memories growing up through 70s, R.I.P
