Jay Justin - Proud Of You

Proud Of You/Love Me Love Me Baby Darling




It's almost 48 years since 'Proud of You' first hit the charts on its way to a national Number 1. Jay was unusual in that he actually wrote his own songs, as well as writing or helping to write hits for others. A school girl named Patricia Amphlett was one of his discoveries. At the age of 13, she'd appeared on the TV show, 'Opportunity Knocks' but her career really took off when Jay saw her performing at the Bronte Surf Club and introduced her to EMI records. He and EMI producer Joe Halford wrote the 2 songs which would be Little Pattie's first single release - 'He's My Blonde-Headed Stompie-Wompie Real Gone Surfer Boy' on the A-side and 'Stompin' at Maroubra' on the B-side.

Jay had a number of other hits himself, including 'Reminiscing', played the Devil in a panto featuring a number of Australian rock stars and represented Australia at the World Song festival in Rio. While he hasn't appeared on the charts for many years, he's continued to record and perform and is working on a new album right now. He's good mates with several other performers who became famous in the 60's such as Frank Ifield, John Rowles and Lucky Starr.

Herbie Marks - Herbie's Boogie

Herbie's Boogie/Last Tango In Paris


Really hard to find out anything about this guy hard to find out to much specific about him but he seems to get around with small mentions of him playing with someone or another backing people like Lionel Long and Tina Lawton to name but a few on recordings. Herbie plays the piano and the piano accordion and has released a number of albums among them "The Magic Accordion of Herbie Marks: Down Mexico Way" 1965 "Theme From Last tango In Paris" 1973 "Here Comes D'Boogie Man" 1973 "An Echanted Evening With" and as The Herbie Marks Trio "Fiddler On The Roof".

Dennis O'Brien - Any Other Face In The Rain

Any Other Face In The Rain/She Won't Dance



David O'Brien was a Kiwi musician who went to the UK in 1971 to try his hand at the big time he said a the time he wanted to be the first musician from New Zealand to make it to #1 in the UK. He returned there again in 1973 to have another crack at it and stayed for 5 years this time and was starting to make a name for himself when along came Punk which virtually sunk any hope he had at success. He made an appearance at Knebworth 1978 but was slotted in on the Friday night when most of the punk bands appeared and was booed of the stage.



As this single was released in 1978 on "Ode" a New Zealand label I assume he must have returned to New Zealand soon after. Side 1 of the single has a funky feel about it, while side 2 is straight out late 70's pop. David Released 3 albums 1 in the UK and 2 at home in New Zealand. David now lives in New Zealand and runs Slow Boat Records.
