One of the rarest Australian LPs with only 200 being pressed at time for their fans & the CD release also getting very rare now.

The band mainly played at dance-discos around Melbourne in 1965 and 1966 and was a great cover band.  They embodied  the spirit of a musical style being played at so many dances of the time, consisting largely of "stomp" versions of classics such as Kansas City, Shakin' All Over, I'll Make You Happy etc.

This is about as 'garage' as it gets!
