From Waren Fahey's Facebok page: 'Macca' host of the (deservedly) hugely popular ABC radio program 'Australia All Over' will feature a half hour tribute to three great Australians next week - 9am 11th August. Warren Fahey will reminisce about the contributions of three of his mates - Gary Shearston, John Dengate and Peter O'Shaughnessy.
