I've struck some Peter Allen gold!!!  Here's the FULL video of Peter singing his touchingly beautiful song, "Tenterfield Saddler" from the TV special Peter Allen in Concert at the Sydney Opera House in 1977.  Before this exquisite find, I've only seen the edited version of this performance from Peter Allen: The Boy from Oz documentary.  I wish to thank fellow YouTuber, Myrage, for allowing me to share this amazing video with you all!  Please check out their awesome YouTube music video channel at: @myrage9968.  

Originally written in 1972, "Tenterfield Saddler" is about three generations of Peter's family on his father's side. The song tells the story of his grandfather, George Harewell Woolnough (1884-1963) who worked as a saddler in Tenterfield, New South Wales, Australia, from 1908 until his retirement in 1960.  The story then progresses to Peter's father, Richard John Woolnough (1916-1958) who was never the same after returning home from WWII after serving in the Australian Army and died of suicide by gunshot in 1958.  The story concludes with Peter Richard Woolnough (1944-1992) who changed his last name to Allen and married a girl with an interesting face (Liza Minnelli).
