This is the first part of a large commission i recently received. Eventually it will be two 30 minute sound pieces installed in two rooms in an historic cottage on Hobarts Eastern shore. The music is about the life of Neil Davis - A Tasmanian born war reporter and camera man. Davis was the only journalist to film behind the lines of both opposing forces in the Vietnam War. He died in Thailand in the 1980's capturing his own death on film. He spent much of his life living in Asia helping the victims of war. Growing up in Rural Tasmania he was an expert horse rider, professional football player and a heavy drinker, gambler and party animal. The works will be accompanied by still and moving images and during the Clarence Jazz festival each night a local muso will improvise against both pieces simultaneously. Should be fun and noisy! This first section is about his early days on the farm just out of Hobart. Big Thanks to Anita Hustas and Phil Bywater for the Double Bass and Tenor Saxophone.

Just This Side Of Glory

“Dear Tom”

How’s the retirement, Tom?
Why now so quiet, dear Tom?
You’ve a cozy, small place here
Where a man could disappear
	Is that what you’re doing, Tom?

Do you get visitors,
Or only the odd, lost bird?
Friends are a blessing,
But even friendship’s passing.
	Do you have friends, dear Tom?

Where’re your pictures?
Don’t you have children?
Well, didn’t you marry?
Man, you’re just like a pilgrim!
Searching your life
Through the flowers and barbs,
Searchin’ alone under your very own star!

Did you get lonely?
What did you do then?
Did you have family?
Well, why didn’t you call them?
I’m sure they’d have loved
To hear from their uncle—
A family together
Lends old age a pleasure!

Listen’t’me blather, Tom,
I don’t mean to nag ya’, dear Tom.
The truth’s I admire you
And all that you’ve lived through.
	You’ve lived quite a life, dear old Tom

How did you do it, Tom?
What were you trying to prove?
Seventy years
And six careers
	I can understand why you’re so tired...


From a cop to an actor,
From a ref to a coach,
Have you ever considered
All the lives that you’ve touched?
Don’t be so modest
I speak from experience
An honest man like you makes a difference!

I should be going
It’s nearly past sundown
But I’ll visit again
Next time I am in town
Never you doubt it
I will return soon
As sure as I draw breath
And you lie in this tomb...

I won’t forget you...won’t forget you...won’t forget...
