Australian Single & Album Chart Positions

Tabled below are the Australian releases in which Jeff has played a major role after having spent a good fifteen years at the helm of the Electric Light Orchestra learning his craft!

Prior to that of course he was a member of the legendary Idle Race  and in 1970 joined
Roy Wood and Bev Bevan in the Move before it metamorphosed into the Orchestra.

Indeed he wears a coat of many colours often being asked to produce, write, arrange and play by the great artists listed! Details of what did where will follow later when I have more time, but at least this is a start!

This page is still under construction so please bear with me as I wander through the minefield of chart placing information from which I am foraging from all sorts of sources!
