The astonishing outpouring of rock 'n' roll in the 1960s in Australia and New Zealand gave birth to such iconic bands such as the Easybeats, the Masters Apprentices, Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs, the Purple Hearts and the Missing Links. It also launched the careers of a generation of musicians who would go on to greater, international fame with their later groups (the Bee Gees, AC/DC, Little River Band, and more). Wild About You! includes chapters on 35 bands that made the scene, as well as the editors' list of the top 100 beat and garage songs of the era.

Bought this book for my husband's birthday [he turned 61 yesterday] and he has already started reading it. He absolutely loves it. Takes him back to his youth as he used to frequent a lot of the clubs mentioned and can remember well seeing a lot of these bands. Great read for anyone who grew up in Melbourne during this era.
