The Panther Page

Panthers on Film

Panthers, and things related, have appeared on a few movies and television programs. This page provides a listing. In the fullness of time and as the technology progresses and assuming copyright allows, I hope to include mpegs of the relevant clips. For now this listing will allow the truly obsessive to get the videos.
 
Blow Up - not actually a Panther but the London Pride & Clarke depot

Panthers in Song

I don't imagine there will be many entries in this category, hence it does not have a page to itself...

I've Been Everywhere, written by Geoff Mack, was apparently inspired by his 1954 journey from the UK to Australia on a 1954 Panther (see newspaper article). The song was recorded in 1960 by Lucky Starr and it became an Australian hit. It has since been recorded hundreds of time in, apparently, hundreds of languages. Hank Snow's chart-topping 1963 version won Geoff a citation. The original Panther is apparently at the Tamworth "Walk a Country Mile" Centre in Tamworth, NSW, Australia.

The band Mad Dog  have a song called Panther Blues, featured an big sloper being kicked over behind the music starting at the end of the song. A POC member is/was lead vocals and guitar. They were performing ~2000.
