Mississippi On The Fairsky
Graeham Goble and Narelle Taylor were married on April 16, 1974, and four days later, they and the rest of Mississippi boarded their Sitmar liner bound for England. They took with them all of their belongings intending to leave Australia forever.
Beeb Birtles:
“We hired a manager, Barry Earl, who negotiated a trip to England on the ship, “Fairsky”. Charlie Tumahai, Graeham Goble, Harvey James, Derek Pellicci and Beeb Birtles. Barry Early sits in front.”

A Will I (Long Version)
B Will I (Edited Version)
Mississippi’s third, and final single – Beeb Birtles & Darryl Cotton’s “Will I”, which was recorded during the same sessions as “Early Morning”. The song’s questioning, self-seeking mood is indicative of the way Beeb would often relate to songwriting in the future.
