Archie Roach. Genuinely sad about this one, what a great man. Did it tough
If you haven’t read his book I strongly suggest you read it.

One of the best defensive, and counter punching boxers I have ever seen. I've got vivid memories of Johnny knocking Fighting Harada through the ropes in Tokyo.One of our greatest boxers, Johnny Famechon

RIP Johnny.
RIP to Johnny. Sad thing for me is that I remember more about him 30 years ago when he got hit by the car and suffered a brain injury.
I dont normally get into the idolisation of musicians (or actors, sports people etc) But Archie Roach was different. He was a leader, a story teller, and someone shared knowledge with all of Australia.
I saw him play a few times, i reckon the last time might have about 2009. In a surprise, even to him, Ruby Hunter, who he hadnt seen for a while joined him on stage. It was magic.
He will be missed, but his legacy and influence will live on for a long time.

I saw him at the Myer music bowl in February 2021. Sat on a chair on stage with a portable oxygen tank.
It was like a farewell concert. Paul Kelly made an appearance and played a few songs with him.
Pretty emotional night because he spoke a lot, tellling stories
