Adelaide

After the show

Anastasia changes her mind

Be careful what you pray for

Beautiful promise

Before too long

Beggar on the street of love

Behind the bowler's arm

Big fine girl

Blues for skip

Bradman

(The) Cake and the candle

Careless

Change your mind

Charlie Owen's slide guitar

Cities of Texas

Coma

Cradle of love

Deeper water

Desdemona

Difficult woman

Don't explain

Don't harm the messenger

Don't stand so close to the window

Don't start me talking

Down to my soul

Dumb things

Emotional

Every fucking city

Everybody wants to touch me

Everything's turning to white

(The) Foggy fields of France

Foggy highway

Forty miles to Saturday night

Forty-eight angels

From little things big things grow

From St Kilda to Kings Cross

Gathering storm

God told me to

(The) Gift that keeps on giving

Glory be to God

Going about my father's business

How to make gravy

I can't believe we were married

I close my eyes and think of you

I don't know anything anymore

I keep on coming back for more

I'd rather go blind

If I could start today again

I wasted time

I won't be your dog

Jandamarra/Pigeon

Jump to love

Just about to break

King of fools

Lately

Leaps and bounds

Little boy, don't lose your balls

Love is the law

Love never runs on time

Luck

Maralinga (rainy land)

Meet me in the middle of the air

Midnight rain

My way is to you

No you

Nothing but a dream

(The) Oldest story in the book

One more tune

Other people's houses

Our sunshine

Please myself

Pretty place

(The ballad of) Queenie and Rover

Rally round the drum

Randwick bells

Saturday night and Sunday morning

Shane Warne

Smoke under the bridge

Somebody's forgetting somebody

Somewhere in the city

South of Germany

Standing on the street of early sorrows

Stolen apples

Stories of me

Stupid song

Summer rain

Sweet guy

Sydney from a 747

They thought I was asleep

Thoughts in the middle of the night

To her door

Until death do them part

When I first met your ma

Winter coat

Won't you come around?

Would you be my friend?

You broke a beautiful thing

You can put your shoes under my bed

You can't take it with you

Your little sister is a big girl now

Young lovers

You're 39, you're beautiful and you're mine

Your loving is on my mind

Zoe

More Information

The story and the songs: How To Make Gravy (Paul's 576 page memoir) packaged with The A To Z Recordings (8CD Box Set) in a deluxe slip case.

Paul Kelly’s long-awaited memoir has its genesis in a series of Spiegeltent concerts first staged in 2004. Over four nights Kelly performed one hundred of his songs in alphabetical order. From the anecdotes he told in between songs grew How to Make Gravy – a memoir like no other. Superb storytelling from Australia's most prodigious singer-songwriter.

How to Make Gravy’s four sections mirror the four nights of the A-Z shows. Each chapter starts with a song lyric followed by a story. Some stories tell Kelly's personal and family history, some take you on a road trip with the band, some form an idiosyncratic history of popular music, others offer insights into the songwriter's art – from the point of inspiration to writing, honing, collaborating, performing, recording and reworking.

Playful and honest, insightful and intimate, How to Make Gravy is an irresistible reflection on the big and little things in life.

I bought his today and am having a nice PK session tonight. I'm sitting on my metal framed bar stool - listening to this, I feel like I'm sitting in a soft leather arm-chair.. Beautiful listening...
