Ross Ryan
Australian singer/songwriter Ross Ryan's debut album Homemovies
(1972) was recorded independently at Channel Nine's studios
in Perth, for a total cost of only $500. Ross distributed copies
among his friends, and the LP finally came to the attention of
Perth radio station 6PM, and manager Al Maricic.
In 1973, Ross recorded a song called I Am Pegasus
(allegedly inspired by an air hostess he once met). The single was
released in November and went on to be his biggest hit. In 1974
Ross was presented with a gold record for Pegasus by
then-Prime Minister, Gough Whitlam.
