- Ted Mulry Gang
After getting tired of being backed by different backing bands, in 1972 he switched from acoustic guitar to bass and formed his own band, "Ted Mulry Gang", with guitarist Les Hall & drummer Herman Kovacs. The band signed a recording deal with Albert Productions in 1974 and released their first album Here We Are. Guitarist Gary Dixon joined around this time to complete the foursome. With his own band behind him he adopted a more hard rockin' style.
Their first major hit, and the biggest of their career was the 1975 single Jump In My Car which spent 6 weeks at number one on the Australian singles charts in 1976. It was the second single released from the Here We Are album produced by John L Sayers at Trafalgar Studios. Over the next few years they achieved a string of hit singles including a rocked up version of the old jazz song, Darktown Strutter's Ball, Crazy, Jamaica Rum and My Little Girl. Many of TMG's songs, including Jump In My Car, were co-written with guitarist Les Hall. By the early 1980s their chart success had ended but they remained popular performers on the Australian pub circuit throughout the decade.
In 1998 Ted released a solo CD called "This Time" of songs co-written by himself and his brother Steve Mulry. In early 2001 Ted Mulry announced that he had been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. A series of tribute concerts organized shortly before his death, Gimme Ted, brought together an assortment of Australian rock acts of his era to pay tribute to him. These included a reunion of his band Ted Mulry Gang with his brother Steve Mulry standing in for him as lead vocalist. Steve now fronts the rock band Black Label [1] and performs at many venues, including biker events, around New South Wales and Victoria, often supporting bands such as The Angels.
In January 2006, David Hasselhoff recorded a version of Ted's classic Jump In My Car whilst in Australia. Hasselhoff's version of Jump In My Car was subsequently released in the UK and went to #3 in the charts there in October 2006
Ted and his wife used to come to a nightclub I frequented in Sydney around 1979. They used to dance old-fashioned style, waltzing and basic ballroom dancing. He was a gentleman.
So many great Australian bands countdown Sunday nights wonderful time to be gown up in Australia
I remember way back when this song was released,and a young girl in Burnie was abducted and later found deceased,in respect for her family the local radio station wouldn't play jump in my car, I won't say her name in respect to her and her family,may she rip💐
Happy to have grown up in the 70's.
Why do I suspect these blokes and AC/DC were brothers-in-arms back in the day? You can detect a Sweet vibe here......
Ted was good mates with the bass player in my band. Whenever Ted was in Brisbane the two of them would get wrecked together. Unfortunately I never got to meet Ted but I always enjoyed the stories. The impression I got of Ted Mulry was of a decent, friendly fellow who was a lot of fun. I'm sorry I missed him.
Great Song and Video. I wish I could have lived in Australia back in the 70's. I think the times we are living in now, have really changed for the Worse.
Not really

Just spotted that too...thought I had a first!
1 OF MY ALL TIME FAVOURITES..💕
I couldn't afford to see the Stones, so sat on the river bank opposite Memorial Drive in Adelaide.. along with about 5,000 others. TMG were the support band so came on first. It was so loud we could hear it clearer where we were than in the venue. The Jagger came on stoned and was total crap.
I remember dancing at the local disco with my new girlfriend
I was Rockin away to Ted not knowing my fly was open
This song was popular back 1975 and early 1980s

This is such contrast to CC Catch's version.
