Another legend of Aussie Rock joins the boys in the studio. Ross Wilson with The Coodabeens, Live from studio 301.

Welcome to the Coodabeens

Irreverence, wit, humour and the odd tall story are the order of the day when The Coodabeens take the microphone. Jeff Richardson, Ian Cover, Greg Champion and Billy Baxter are the Coodabeens and you can catch them on ABC Radio 6.30 to 9pm on Sunday nights. (AEST)

ROSS WILSON

The boys were lucky enough to have the company of Aussie rock legend, Ross Wilson on Saturday night (see above, right) - his only Saturday off in living memory!

Ross played a few tracks - one old and one new - and Champy entertained with his Advance-Australia-Eagle-Rock-Fair.

The Coodabeens' Theme


The Coodabeen Champions are often asked about the theme music which introduces both their Saturday footy show and the Sunday night program. It is the theme from the movie The Good, The Bad and The Ugly composed by Ennio Morricone. The Coodabeens use the version by Hugo Montenegro and His Orchestra.

You can hear a little of the Coodabeens' Theme by clicking above!
