This Friday night rage will pay to tribute to two remarkable Australian icons who passed away this week, The Seekers' Judith Durham and Dame Olivia Newton-John.

We'll be playing a couple of performances from The Seekers from 1967 at Expo 67 in Montreal, an interview with Judith Durham on GTK in 1970, plus videos from the Vault including the legendary Aussie anthem 'I Am Australian' featuring Mandawuy Yunupingu and Russell Hitchcock.

Then, we'll be playing performances from Olivia Newton-John on Countdown in 1980, an interview with Olivia from GTK in 1971, and all the hits from our vault and some deeper cuts as well, plus a Grease megamix, and her collaborations with John Travolta, Andy Gibb and David Foster.

Join us in celebrating the incredible lives and songs of Judith Durham and Olivia Newton-John, tomorrow night from 12:20am on ABC TV
