Richards has said (in Jeff Jenkins' 50 Years of Rock in Australia) that Augie March's best-known song, 'One Crowded Hour', was inspired by war photographer Neil Davis, whose biography by Tim Bowden is called One Crowded Hour (taking the title from British poet Thomas Osbert Mordaunt's poem 'The Call').
