Christopher James Mannix Bailey (29 November 1956 – 9 April 2022) was a Kenyan-born Australian singer, songwriter, musician and producer.
A cover of the Easybeats' "The Music Goes Round My Head" was issued as a single in December 1988 and featured on the soundtrack to the film Young Einstein.
Swedish musicians Eddie Nyström (guitar), Magnus Börjeson (bass) and Stellan Colt (drums) provided the rock base for the album.
When Mushroom Music celebrated its 25th anniversary in 1998, Bailey was one of the invited artists to perform on a stage at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in front of an audience of about 100,000 people.
He performed solo two of his most famous songs, "Ghost Ships", and "Just Like Fire Would", and also a duet with Paul Kelly on "Wide Open Road", a tribute to the late David McComb of the Triffids.
In 2003, Bailey made a guest appearance singing the chorus vocals on "Bring It On" on Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds album Nocturama.
