Mark Seymour - Westgate (2007)

Westgate is the fifth studio album by Australian musician Mark Seymour released in June 2007. The album was described as centred on "everyday heroes", with the title track recounting the tale of a real-life worker who was on duty when Melbourne's West Gate Bridge collapsed on 15 October 1970, killing 35 construction workers. "The Year of the Dog" which was initially written as a football song for the Western Bulldogs football team, became the saga of a friend with a drink problem. The album was named as one of the top 10 albums of the year by the Sunday Herald Sun.

The album's title track had previously been included in a Melbourne Theatre Workers' production, We Built This City, performed at Scienceworks in the suburb of Spotswood in early 2006.
