Indeed. According to Wiki they first performed as The Rattlesnakes in 1957 before emigrating and then had a hit with this...

Before returning to England, so we were both right.

Rattlesnakes is a good band name ... similar to many of that era.

So, the answer to the question is Men At Work (with their one hit) and AC/DC (with their one chord) !

If AC/DC had one chord, how many did Quo have?

I saw ACDC at the very first London gig in the Marquee.

Where people come from is not really that important, rather the atmosphere they grow up in is the factor.

But ITK yet again shows his complete lack of class by demonstrating yet again his woeful ignorance and obviously never bopped around the living room to the sounds of the sensational Zither & Shirley Abicair ..still going at age 98 and living in a lovely little house in Paddington

Nor has he obviously seen the great Australian diplomat Sir Les Patterson, renowned for his electric style and grace as seen here when he sings a beautiful song to his wife Lady Gwen on the Parkinson show.

Spicks and Specks still one of my favourite albums of all time.

thank God ITK isn't having a Bee Gees night.

Obviously ITK never heard of KYLIE MINOGUE !!!

Another great Australian singer who was discovered by Rupert Murdoch when he heard him singing while raking leaves in his garden...Kamahl (who once gave me a lift home in his Roller of I promised to tell him scandals about stars)..became The Queen Mum's favourite singer...

here he is when Rupert discovered him in his garden..happened to have a full film crew there at the time and a portable recording studio...

he doesn't wear frocks you dill.

This is a common mistake which was perfectly illustrated in the "Barry McKenzie" film authored by Barry Humphries.

When Barry goes to a party with some British toffs one says to him mockingly :

"Is it true Australia is full of homosexuals?"

to which McKenzie responds:

"nahhh that's just the publicity we put out to attract the Pommie migrants"

you are probably thinking of Dame Edna Everage, the Governor General of Australia. Her frocks are designed by her son Kenny.
I just advise Sir Les how to appear dignified and sophisticated in public.

just hopeless. It's New Zealand that has 4 million sheep, 3 million who think they are people.

Never ever lived in Earls Court. Lived in Notting Hill Gate in a Mews flat for the last 20 years in the UK.
