Barry Hugh Crocker was born on 4 November 1935 in Geelong, Victoria, Australia. He was married to Dene Crocker with whom he had five children - Geraldine, Martine, Erica, Barry and Amanda; nine grandchildren Camilla, Bianca, Jessica, Lee, Aaron, Caleb, James, and Stacey; and five great children: Wade, Amber, Ezekial, Zara and Lillie. In 1990, Crocker began a relationship with actress Katie Manning. Crocker is an Australian character actor, television personality, singer, and variety entertainer with a crooning vocal style known for his iconic Australian films during the 1970's The Adventures of Barry McKenzie and sequel Barry McKenzie Holds His Own. Crocker went on to become the presenter and leading performer on The Sound of Music television series, taking over from entertainer Bobby Limb which earned him a Gold Logie in 1970 as Australia's top male television personality. His singing talents eventually earned him over 30 Gold record. In 1971 Sound of Music was the 11th most popular show in the country. Crocker sang the theme tune to the Australian soap opera Neighbours between 1985 and 1992. He published an autobiography called Bazza - The Adventures of Barry Crocker, in 2003.
