Beginning with the dawning of the Top 40 era in 1957, these podcasts will trace the development of Australian Music through three initial series; Charts, Singers and Groups. Whilst the first batch of podcasts will move forward from 1957, later work will have a reverse focus, exploring the rich and diverse world of Australian Music pre-Top 40 era.

With the recent sad passing of the great Col Joye, I have returned to The Col Joye Story for Part 4, covering the years 1964-65. I think it quite possible that many listeners may not be familiar with some of the 45 tracks that will be played in this episode. Only two of the seven 45s released in the period made the national Top 100. The British Beat boom, led by The Beatles, with The Rolling Stones not far behind, changed the Music Industry forever. Col Joye only released one EP in the period 1964-65, however, he did release three LPs and one very odd 3 EP set ( a Festival cash grab that didn’t work!). On the LPs are some of Col Joye & The Joy Boys’ best Rock ‘n’ Roll, perhaps even better than their original work in the 50s. Enjoy Part 4 of The Col Joye Story.
