As the ‘hip and happening’ cover suggests, this double CD complication of 1960s Oz rock is much more than a trip down memory lane, it’s more like a rite of passage. This is the perfect album if you were thinking of having a 1960s-themed sleepover party. It has such hits as Lynne Randell’s Ciao Baby, Normie Row’s Shakin’ All Over; Russell Morris’s The Girl That I Love. The lyric lines may now seem quite corny, but there has been no tweeking with the sound, so it’s as orignial and faithful to the swinging 60s as one can get. So unscrew the Cinzano, put on your platform shoes and brylcreme the hair… Old enough to remember and yet young enough never to forget. Ah, the 60s!
