From Adelaide to Australia’s Bob Dylan
about 5 years in adelaidenow
On 13 January 1955, Paul Maurice Kelly was born, the sixth of nine children, in Adelaide, Australia. His older sister Sheila remembers the time well, “He was just absolutely gorgeous. He had the Italian look. Even as a baby he had the black curly hair and the big chocolatey eyes. Mum would put him out in the bassinet in the backyard to have a snooze. She knew she could leave him there for hours because I would pull up a chair and sit and gaze at him, adoringly. I couldn’t take my eyes off him.”
