BiographyWarren John Fahey was born on 3 January 1946 and grew up in Sydney.[1] His father, George Fahey, and mother, Deborah (née Solomon), were each members of large families.[1] Fahey attended Marist Brothers College, Kogarah for secondary education; initially he worked for ad agencies and as a youth worker.[1] In 1970 Fahey began a folklore unit in Sydney where he collected material of cultural significance.[2] In 1973 he established Folkways Music as a "retail music outlet specialising in folkloric recordings and publications."[1][3] The store supplied "records, books, sheet music and instruments" and commenced "as a means to financing its proprietor's collecting activities. It received no government assistance, and for its first year was subsidised by advertising work."[3] Fahey founded Larrikin Records in 1974 "to publish and commercially release extended play recordings featuring Australian traditional folk music and songs for both educational and entertainment purposes."[4] The label's first album, Man of the Earth: Songs and Ballads of the Australian Mining Industry (1975), was credited to Fahey on lead vocals; Dave de Hugard on concertina, button accordion and fiddle; Phyl Lobl on guitar, Mike Jackson on mouth organ and spoons; Andy Saunders on 5-string banjo and guitar; and Tony Suttor on accordion.[9] Fahey also produced the album.[5] In 1975 he formed a folk music ensemble, the Larrikins, which issued an album, Limejuice and Vinegar (1977), with the line-up of Fahey and Suttor (on button accordion and Anglo concertina) joined by Ned Alexander on fiddle; Liora Claff on guitar and whistle; Jack Fallis on mandolin and guitar; and Paddy McLuaghlin on banjo.[11] It was re-released in 1985, with the content described as "Traditional Australian seamen's and boatmen's songs."[6] Back in April 1975 the Larrikins undertook a tour of north western Australia, to perform "folk-army songs, bush songs, bush poetry and yarns, bush dance music."[2] After the Down Under (song) court case, he suggested that the copyright owners of the Kookaburra (song), Larrikin Music, 'gift' the song to Australia.[7] He has a distinguished career as a folklorist and collector of oral histories.
