Loved MAA as a kid in the early 80s as they were a whacky Aussie band.

RIP Greedy.

Modern flight and even space travel wouldn't exist without him.

Did a lot off camera too. IIRC Cornell played a significant role in helping Kerry Packer get WSC up and running. Add also the 1980s Aussie tourism ads with Hoges.
