Brett Garsed is a hell of a guitar player and brilliant musician who came to prominence in the Whispering Jack days with John Farnham. Brett travelled the world with his guitar but has settled back in regional Victoria and chats about his latest work on the Horizon project, his solo material and the Farnham days. 

For the first time we also open the H Files Vault and find an episode of Kev's old national radio show Rocksat, which features John Farnham launching the Chain Reaction album in September 1990. The premise of Rocksat was to give radio listeners across Australia access to one of the big stars of the day at 9pm on a Wednesday night. This episode was recorded at AAV Metropolis studios in South Melbourne and had a live studio audience as well as listeners on nearly 30 stations across the country. Amazing what we did before the internet!
