The Easybeats were arguably the best and most influential Australian rock band of the sixties. According to Milesago (a great site on Australian rock and popular culture), they had fifteen top 40 singles in Australia between 1965 and 1970, including three number one hits. They generated teenage hysteria in the early days (known as 'Easyfever'), not unlike Beatlemania. They were largely unknown outside of Oz, except for their international hit, Friday on My Mind.

Sad & Lonely & Blue was written by singer Stevie Wright and rhythm guitarist George Young, the team which wrote most of the Easybeats' earliest hits, and which were my favourites. The Vanda and Young partnership came later. This song was released in November 1965 and reached number 26 on the charts.

As there is no clip that I know of for this song, I have done a slide show video for it. Comments are welcome.
