I was the guitarist/ singer in rocks and for those interested we now have a stack of pics on Facebook at Rocks.Australian Punk rock 1977. AnnieDelico, if you're interested I have a few tapes of our gigs which I can put on disc for you. BTW we started in the 70's at the very beginning of Aussie Punk.

@bloke58 Hope you don't mind, found an old tape of a taped tape from a gig and added Final Assault here, do you know which gig it's from ?

Great Band ... Great Times : ) So Many Great Bands & Venues back in the Eighties. Can't seem to find any actual Film Clips of ROCKS though on YouTube : ( I have this album on Vinyl. My FAVOURITE song was "Can't Forget" (I hope I got the name right). I miss those days/years.

@AnnieDelico I had a copy of one of their live gigs but being on a cheap old VHS tape it was in a sad state so was chucked :-( with any luck someone out there still has a good copy.
