I was not aware of this recording until several days ago. I found it by some strange coincidence.
Is there
such a thing?
Many thanks to Garry for making
this song available for downloading, and for the extra information:
"Stand By Me" by Jon English is available from Ozzie Music Man who has a veritable treasure trove of rare Australian rock for your listening pleasure.You can find it here.
"Jon issued a single in September 1994 here for you to download, "Stand by Me" b/w "Stand By Me (Dance Mix)" (PDSCD 570) on Possum Records.
Royalties from this single were donated to the N.S.W. Parkinson's Syndrome Society.
Backing vocals: Justine Ballen and Amanda Hanna. Peter Dawkins produced the single with engineer Gavin Dutfield"

Garry also brought to my attention the fact
that Jon has released an anthology of his first eight albums - info via Facebook - which I don't use and probably never will.
I have all of
them on vinyl, but CD’s are so much better!
I was really thrilled to receive
mine recently.
I particularly like the DVD “Live
and Rare”.
Not to mention so many other songs on the CDs which I have not heard for a long time.
Another “strange coincidence” was
finding this excellent review of “InRoads”.
Released in 1981, and available on the Anthology albums. Impressive!
I have several other posts about Jon and his music on my blog - the search function works very well:)

Jon said “Stand by Me is his favourite Motown song just before he sang it.
Some pictures of Jon's earlier single covers.
