==Early life==
Donald Richard Spencer was born on 22 March 1941 and raised in Tamworth. Spencer attended Tamworth High School,〔 he played hockey as a teenager and competed in the Australian championships. At 17 he left Australia and travelled to Africa where, in his 20s, he trained with the Kenyan hockey team trying out for the Olympics. A chance meeting with locally-born, singer-songwriter, Roger Whittaker, in Nairobi inspired Spencer to buy a guitar and start his musical career.
