The Joy Boys...Shazam!...classic instrumental group from the 60s


The Joy Boys were the Australian equivalent of The Shadows and The Ventures. Twangy, Rockin', Surfin', Stompin' instrumentals that kept the scene buzzin' in the 60s. This rare compilation collects 30 of their finest which includes their biggest "Southern 'Rora". They were also backing band for legendary singer Col Joye.

  2. Hi

    Really like the blog, but unfortunately Mediafire have blocked most of the shares and the files can't be downloaded. Is there any possibility you could reshare most of these via another file provider? Many thanks.
