This isn’t a R&B … This isn’t a R&B classic! This was the song that made people they could rock, exactly what they wanted! To be taken seriously in the industry…
They played this … They played this song live in the assembly hall at Melbourne High School in 1970 when i was a third former. Blew me away then and it still rocks my socks off nearly 40-years later. Long may it live!
Earlier Masters … Earlier Masters Apprentices tracks like Elevator Driver and Living In A Child’s Dream have been the subject of many accolades, and with good reason. They are classics! But for my money, Turn Up Your Radio is their masterpiece. An exuberant celebration and defiant stance against the excesses of the hippie era that came along at just the right time. It was to their eternal credit that Masters Apprentices followed their vision instead of defaulting to the flavor of the month mentality.
If you like this … If you like this song – and personally I like it a lot – you would do well to check out Screaming Lord Sutch’s album with ‘heavy friends,’ which was released the same year. It’s remarkably similar kind of material and I suspect that this track was actually inspired by the SLS album.
these guys probably … these guys probably didn’t sell well in scandinavia, I have never seen their albums in the record stores. too bad, they´re a good band. Is anybody willing to sell vinyl copies of their stuff??
What Wheatley went … What Wheatley went to jail for was pretty innocuous. It was bugger all compared to hundreds of money / business people in Australia who were doing far worse. The tax department claimed that they had many cases pending but after Wheatley, everything went quiet. The tax department has their scalp and the other cases went away.
The “investigation” has been quietly shelved and the legal people who were claiming Wheatley was innocent have become strangely quiet …………… Scapegoat anyone?
According to Glenn, … According to Glenn, he took over management of the band because their current management, P Keatings company had been ripping them off, they were only paid appearance money……They could not go to England, where they had a hit song, because they could not afford it and their management would not pay fares……..
