$11.19

Although he remained largely unknown in the Northern hemisphere, JOHNNY O'KEEFE was Australia's first and biggest indigenous Rock & Roll star.

Many of his records were covers of U.S. and U.K. hits, but he also penned several of his releases; his own best-known song, internationally, is 'Real Wild Child', a number which is nowadays rather more readily associated with Iggy Pop, via his million-selling, 1986 version.

On his home turf, O'Keefe racked up more than thirty hit records between 1957 and his untimely death in 1978, following a heart attack at the age of only 43.
