@yallatup I'm 52 (in 2 months), so I'm a child of the 60s and 70s. I've never heard of these guys. So far, they sound pretty good to me like the other bands of the day. It's like discovering another rock group in my teens all over again. My hat's off to them. And God bless Australia, mate! My dad (RIP) was there during the war and had a lot of great memories of it. I'd trade 1000 Californians (where I live) for one Aussie! G'day!

@TrekToons I turned 52 a few months ago and still remember the Masters Apprentice and many other bands. I used to record the songs by connecting my tape recorder to the speaker inside the TV at mums shop. Suggest you research the history of aussie rock - The Zoot, Daddy Cool and Axiom are a few bands that had top songs in the 60's. Moving forward there was Little River Band, Cold Chisel and AC DC. Worth the journey to explore what we have down under.

My favorite Master's song - I lived across the road from Steve Hopgood (drummer) RIP and heard him practice all day when I was young - I remember they did a Beatles kinda thing up top of the hill larking around near the "Pitt Mansion" which is

now gone sadly.

also Ted Mulry gang, Russell Morris, Normie Rowe, Spectrum

I'm 58 too shortly LOL. Man, some of the memories coming back from this era.... all the other Aussie bands previously mentioned, and also The Easybeats

This song - Dargo Pub and Phil rocking to the jukebox, absolutely classic and always an absolute HOOT of a night - ah, the memories :)

@slutiva Amazing stories you must have! I am in my mid 20s and feel so privileged to have seen Chisels, Angels, Noiseworks, Mondo Rock (twice in one week! they played as Daddy Cool a couple days at uni later - about a dozen guys knew who they were and they loved us). I think though there is some good Aussie bands out there, too many though try to be too "American Commercial". Can't blame them though, nature of the game I suppose.

@treezacarr the Tornadoes were all brothers - they would have played at many venues in the Illawarra, - they seemed to be around forever from the 60's. Originally they all lived in Windang.NSW. Cheers
