Greg Ham Dead

Men At Work's Greg Ham has been found dead in his North Carlton home according to widespread media reports. He was 58 years old.

Greg came up with the flute riff for Men At Work's 1982 hit single "Down Under", which was one Australia's biggest hits from the past 30 years.

The 58-year-old rock identity lost a bitter court dispute in 2010 over the flute riff for "Down Under". A court had decided that the riff had been copied from the campfire tune "Kookaburra Sits In The Old Gum Tree".

Our thoughts go out to his family and friends. Greg is survived by his wife and two children.
