Crikey! Don’t spit the dummy because this isn’t from the USA and Britain. Grab a tinny, give it a burl and you’ll barrack for this tucker from down under*.

I’m not an Aussie so please excuse the above. In regards to the music, during the sixties Australia and New Zealand didn’t have sophisticated recording facilities or significant distribution/promotion channels but these groups did a fine job nonetheless. A few of them ventured to England for a period to advance their careers but all here at least started Down Under. Many of the rarer tunes came from Chocoreve’s music blog (http://chocoreve.blogspot.com/) that I would like to properly acknowledge and thank.
