PAUL KELLY STORIES OF ME charts the many lives, loves and losses of Paul Kelly, one of Australia's most gifted singer songwriters. Kelly has been marking out the Australian landscape and its people through words and music for almost 40 years.

The sixth of nine children, a former altar boy, dux of his school, sports champion and grandson of two famous opera singers, Kelly began playing guitar at the age of 12. Since then, he has penned over 350 songs on themes of love, sex, death, family, friends and places, drawing on an enormous number of heroes; literary, musical, artistic and sporting; for his inspiration, and begging, borrowing and stealing from all of them. His songs are landscapes; charting not just the physical terrain but the emotional landscapes he and his contemporaries have walked through.

He is a storyteller, a poet, and has the unique ability to communicate with all Australians, across all age groups and gender. Collaborating with indigenous musicians, young performers, artists of all genres, Kelly has created some of the most important songs of our times.

Paul Kelly has lived through failure and he has the songs to show for it. Although a very private person in a public career, STORIES OF ME digs deeply into what makes Paul Kelly tick, revealing the man and his music for the first time. And the poet who lurks inside all of us.

excellent - appreciated across 2 generations

Excellent - Great insight into the sometimes tortuous soul of a creative literary genius who could have so easily excelled at law or literacy but filled with passion for loving and living hard - he focused on songwriting. The personal battles and relationships with women and indigenous connections provided great subject matter for his songs. Insights into his references/inspiration from the bible and literacy leaders like Shakespeare surprised my children. Probably more Melbourne than Sydney in his influence he reflects our Australian passions for AFL and family times. HIs music remains timeless ( with younger kids ) and his words still resonate with the 50 somethings. Such is his talent as a writer. A great review of the art of songwriting. So enjoyable for my younger nieces/nephews who had not grown up with his music - well done ! Well worth watching again and again :)

Time to find my Paul Kelly vinyls !
