Album AU 1968 on Calendar Records label
(Folk Rock, Blues Rock, Folk, Gospel, Pop Rock)
On Labels: Made in Australia by Festival Records Pty. Ltd. Recorded at Claude Carnell's "Playroom" at Surfers Paradise, Queensland. "The Playroom's audio and lighting legend Bob Garland would hire in a two-track open-reel tape recorder and record performances. Bob recorded these Johnny O'Keefe tracks (released in June 1968) to a backing track supplied by Festival. The LP was released in Mono, even though it was probably recorded in stereo - possibly to save money." No track duration listed on label for Track A7.
