About this listen
There are many criteria you can place on success in the music business: taking your band to number 1 on the American Billboard Chart, selling nearly 50 million albums, selling-out Wembley Stadium and playing to 78,000 fans are amongst them. One Australian band has achieved all of these milestones - and they have done it with the guiding hand of one long-time manager.
Chris Murphy has been the legendary long-time manager of INXS. But for Chris, achieving global success did not happen overnight. It started by leaving high school to work for his family's agency, learning the ropes and working hard while his friends were off surfing. In Part 1 of their conversation, Peter Rix and Chris Murphy talk about those early years and how it built up to a very unexpected moment and an even more unexpected offer to become the agent, and later manager of a young INXS.
