Kookaburra pecking at Men at Work
Earlier this month I commented on the copyright dispute between Men at Work and Larrikin Music about an allegedly stolen flute riff. The big question before the Court is whether ‘Down Under’, the famous Men at Work song, contains a substantial part of the classic Australian song ‘Kookaburra Sits in the Old Gum Tree’ (written in the 1930s by Marion Sinclair).
