I grew up listening to these guys, from when I first came to Australia in 1973, aged 10. They were such an iconic band and still are. I remember Shirl being on a kids tv show called Shirl’s neighbourhood.
In later years he was on a DIY tv show and then in 2001, he was killed in a helicopter crash. A very sad day for Aussie music. Then we had the loss of Peter Starkie on September 16, 2020, he fell from a ladder aged 72.
Red Symons had a close call not so long ago , which is in the ABC link below, under related stories.

You can watch Skyhooks videos on YouTube, and hopefully become a fan. Australia was an awesome place growing up in the 70s.
