CD Reviews

Johnny Farnham, The VOICE of Australia...
J. Brent Bailey II | Columbus, Ohio United States | 04/06/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This CD was the 1st Platinum selling CD in Australian music history... and no wonder, its excellent from beginning to end. From what I understand John started his music career in Australia as a teen pop star, and as most teen stars do, they fade away... then a brief run as the singer for Little River Band, John/The Voice hit the charts of Australia with Whispering Jack in 1986 and hasn't stopped yet... he has had an amazing career since then, selling millions of LP/CD's. Whispering Jack is where his 2nd start began... This 20th Anniversary Edition has been remastered and sounds wonderful... In Australia he is known as The Voice, buy this CD and see why, he is amazing....."
