In this early 1970s radio interview, John Farnham talks about the night he was discovered by manager Darryl Sambell while playing with his band, Strings Unlimited.
The band were supporting a young singer named Bev Harrell that evening at a gig in a Victorian country town. Harrell was also managed by Sambell, who said he saw potential in Farnham.
