I love Miss Venetta and she looks up at John like a proud Mama. I love Lindsay too and Lisa and Charles. All were John’s backup singers but all were talented in their own right. They stayed with John until they retired because he made everyone family and he let them shine. Thank you.❤

Venetta became an original member of the Ikettes of Ike & Tina Turner fame in 1961 and was a backup vocalist for 5 years. She has worked with Diana Ross, The Supremes, Aretha Franklin, Bette Midler, Burt Bacharach, Bob Dylan, Pink Floyd, Humble Pie, Barbra Streisand, Neil Diamond, Steely Dan, Boz Scaggs, Bob Seger, Joe Cocker, Rolling Stones and many more. Pink Floyd fans would know Venetta from her backing vocals on the 1973 Dark Side Of The Moon tour and the Floyd’s French tour in 1974. In 1975 Venetta did the backing vocals on the Wish You Were Here album. She emigrated to Australia in 1982 and performed as a backup singer for John Farnham for manty years along with the equally brilliant Lisa Edwards and Lindsay Field. ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!

Definitely Carolyn and just look how far away from the mic they all were! Just a stunning performance!

The other 2 are Vanetta Fields and Lindsay Field. They were John's backing vocalists for decades, and have their own independent careers and accomplishments. They are all brilliant❤

John only has the best musicians and singers with him. And they are treated as his friends and he gives them the spotlight as often as he can. John is the G.O.A.T. Love him and his crew. ❤❤❤

Greatest cover of this song hands down. John’s vocals are just epic, you should check out Stan Walkers rendition of Amazing Grace live with The Levites

There’s another Australian singer called Casey Donovan who sings an awesome version of Amazing Grace at Carols by Candlelight, a concert held every Christmas Eve in Melbourne. It’s worth checking out.❤️❤️❤️

Hiya I thought it was time for another John Farnham hit - this is a heavier rock song - All Our Sons and Daughters - this is an epic performance. Enjoy ❤ kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqrKm5aCj550aqssi=u2FmNCqWo8fwAc_D
