Join Cheryl Lee - That Radio Chick on STILL ROCKIN' IT for news, reviews, music and interviews with some of our favourite Australian musicians.

I sit down with the remarkable Karin Keyes, whose new book "It's Because I Love You" captures the essence of a rock and roll romance that spanned 35 years in the Australian music scene. Karin's life story, filled with love, loss, and a journey through the chaos of rock and roll royalty, is both inspiring and deeply touching.

Karin opens up about the inspiration behind her book, initially centered on her son William, who tragically passed away. The narrative has since evolved, focusing on her enduring love with her late husband, Jim. Karin's authentic storytelling offers profound insights and hints at an exciting sequel, promising to continue exploring themes of love, loss, and music, with intriguing connections to figures like Annette Day.

We also honor the legacy of the great Jim Keyes, celebrating his induction into the SA Music Hall of Fame and his diverse contributions to the music world, including the Brisbane Lions club song.

His heartfelt reunion with his biological mother adds an emotional layer to his story, reflecting his deep impact as both an artist and a person.

This episode serves as a heartfelt homage to Jim's enduring influence in music and family, while also providing a glimpse into future musical releases and a second book.

Connect with Karin's moving journey and celebrate the legacy of a true icon in the Australian music scene.
