Well..in my opinion anyway!

Let me tell you a little about the artists. Dan Sultan is an Indigenous Australian who unfortunately is still quite obscure even in this country. I don't want to be political, but there are a lot of obstacles for Indigenous people to overcome in this country to get anywhere and this guy is a great artist and seemingly a very nice guy. He sings some mean blues as well.

Ella Hooper was front woman at a very young age for an Aussie band called Killing Heidi. I have always thought she is really, really cute but in this performance, again in my humble opinion, Dan steals the show a bit.

I thought some of you guys might enjoy it.

Great video. That woman can sing, too. Just curious. What does it mean to be an Indigenous Australian? I'm guessing an aboriginal background? I really don't know.

This one of my two or three favorite songs in Woodstock, where Joe Cocker absolutely ripped it up. These guys did a very good job, too. Thanks for posting this.

Hi Jay. Yes he's Aboriginal. Here's a clip of just him. He's wielding an Australian made Maton guitar. Sounding pretty good.

I agree Jerry, Dan is very handsome! ;)
