Rolf Harris's wobble board features on new film

Rolf Harris's wobble board sound features on Baz Luhrmann's film 'Australia', starring Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman.

Rolf Harris's wobble board sound is to appear on Baz Luhrmann's new film, 'Australia', which stars Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman. Harris, whose first international hit 'Tie Me Kangaroo Down' featured the 'instrument', says: "It's amazing to get the wobble board on the film. They already had the didgeridoo on there. Apparently Baz Luhrmann suddenly said, 'this is crazy, we haven't got the iconic sound of Rolf Harris's wobble board on the music, we must be mad'. I've sent the recording of the wobble board back and they were thrilled to bits".
