Loved him as Judas in Jesus Christ Superstar in the 70's - the first live show I saw.  Loved him ever since.  Sad loss.  RIP

The Pirate King.       Even a sword fight with the Orchestra conductor

I saw Jon English many times in concert when living in Wagga Wagga. He had strong links with the rugby league world over there. His brother also was a lecturer at the university.

One of the great Aussie talents who will be sadly missed. Thankfully his music will live on.

A household name for my family. My children grew up with John English performances. We all loved him.
