Description: From five young migrants who met in a Sydney hostel to the band that gave Australia its first true rock anthem, the story of The Easybeats is one of ambition, reinvention, and enduring influence. This book traces their rise through the sweaty clubs of Kings Cross, the international breakthrough of "Friday on My Mind," and the songwriting partnership of Harry Vanda and George Young that would shape Australian music for decades. Along the way it explores their UK years, their evolving albums, and the slow unravelling of a group that burned brightly but briefly. A vivid tribute to the band that put Australian rock on the world map.
