Bill Lawry... This is Your Life is the fifth album released by The Twelfth Man. Released on 7 December 1997, it reached number one on the ARIA Album Charts for two weeks. The album contains special guest vocals from Jimmy Barnes, John Farnham, and Merv Hughes.[1]

At the ARIA Music Awards of 1998, the album was nominated for Best Comedy Release losing to Paul McDermott's Unplugged Good News Week Tapes: Volume 1.[2]

Plot

An episode of This Is Your Life is aired about Bill Lawry, with many of Bill's friends and rivals making appearances. There is a running gag throughout that Richie is none too impressed by Bill receiving an episode of This Is Your Life before him and not inviting him to a party in the city. Another running gag is Bill Lawry repeatedly calling host Mike Munro, Matt Munro.
