REG
LINDSAY
Inducted January 1984
One of the pioneers of Australian country
music, Reg Lindsay was making a comeback in 1995 when he suffered
an aneurism from which he has largely recovered. In his career,
Reg has won three Golden Guitars, been awarded an OAM (for services
to music), had his own top-rating nationally-syndicated TV and
radio programs, written more than 500 songs and toured all over
Australia. Reg also tasted success in the USA with his own brand
of country music. Four of his biggest hits were Armstrong,
July You're A Woman, Silence On The Line and Empty Arms
Hotel. He was inducted into the Hands of Fame in 1977. In
tandem with his busy musical career, Reg has held a very strong
association with Australian rodeo.
