I had the pleasure of seeing Jimmy Little perform several times over the years.
He was a very talented Indigenous Australian, and a true gentleman.

I totally agree there Fred.
I never met him or attended one of his concerts but I never heard him speak a negative word.
Australia has definitely lost a great contributor to our society.
He appeared to be the sort of bloke we should all aspire to be.
Rest easy Jimmy, you'll be sadly missed Brother.
Bruce.

I agree, a great voice lost.
I was going to post this yesterday but figured it would be moderated as Off Topic so didn't. So far so good.

I meant to ask, where does the "Vale" come from? I thought his name was James Oswald Little.

"Vale" is Latin for "Farewell"
