About Jimmy

Jimmy Little (1937 - 2012, legal name James Oswald Little) was the first Aboriginal person to have a top 10 single in Australia.

He is one of Australia's most decorated musicians. The 1999 ARIA Hall of Fame inductee was made an officer of the Order of Australia in 2004 and appointed a National Living Treasure the same year.

I've never been to an Aboriginal community where people don't know who [Jimmy Little] is.

— Buzz Bidstrup, Jimmy Little's manager and travel companion
