Top10-Series-Ep.7 1965

Australian Music Archives

MEDICAL UPDATE: By way of explaining my erratic publishing schedule: So far this year I've; been diagnosed with Parkinson's, had a brain biopsy, been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's B Cell Lymphoma in the brain (not related to the Parkinson's), had a relatively mild Flu (which delayed the following) and, started Chemotherapy (two days a month for six months). The prognosis for the Lymphoma is positive but Stevie Wright's "Hard Road" does come to mind!

1965 was a seminal year for Australian Music! To make this Top 11 (tie), the lowest chart position achieved had to be a #3. There are #4 releases that reach #1, and two of those were recorded overseas. Only one group from the 1964 chart appears in the 1965 Top 11. In total there are only four groups in this Top 11. All but one of those has multiple entries! There is only one individual in the Top 11. You can probably guess some of that but "do yourself a favour" (sorry Molly!) and take a listen to this episode.
