JOHNNY DEVLIN (JOHN LOCKETT DEVLIN) HAILS FROM NEW ZEALAND BUT HAS SPENT MUCH OF HIS MUSIC CAREER IN AUSTRALIA. JOHNNY WAS A MAJOR FORCE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE NEW ZEALAND ROCK'N'ROLL SCENE. HIS COVER VERSION OF LLOYD PRICE'S "LAWDY MISS CLAWDY" IN 1958 WENT TO NUMBER 1 IN THE NEW ZEALAND CHARTS WITH SALES OF MORE THAN 100,000 LAUNCHING A LONG-TERM CAREER. IN1959, HE SPENT MUCH OF HIS TIME IN AUSTRALIA TOURING IN SUPPORT OF THE EVERLY BROTHERS AND MAKING APPEARANCES ON AUSTRALIAN TELEVISION SHOWS SUCH AS BANDSTAND, SIX O'CLOCK ROCK AND THE GO!! SHOW. IN 1964, HE TOURED AUSTRALIA AS A SUPPORT ACT FOR THE BEATLES. EVENTUALLY JOHNNY SETTLED IN AUSTRALIA AND FORMED HIS OWN LABEL "TEEN RECORDS" FOR WHICH HE HAD THREE MODERATE HITS: "TURN THE LIGHTS OUT JOHNNY" (DECEMBER 1959), "GIGOLO" (SEPTEMBER 1960) AND "GOT A ZAC IN THE BACK OF MY POCKET" (1960). IN 1963 AND 1964, HE RECORDED "STOMP THE TUMBARUMBA", "BLUE SUEDE SHOES" AND "WHOLE LOTTA SHAKIN' GOIN' ON'" WITH THE BEE GEES SINGING VOCALS BACKINGS ON ALL THREE.

THIS ALBUM PRESENTS A CROSS SECTION OF JOHNNY'S NEW ZEALAND AND AUSTRALIAN RECORDINGS. THE SLEEVE IS RATHER THIN QUALITY BUT GRADED GOOD WITH VISIBLE SIGNS OF WEAR ALONG THE EDGES AND ON THE CORNERS. THE RECORD IS GRADED EXCELLENT ALTHOUGH THERE ARE SOME VERY, VERY LIGHT SCRATCHEs ON THE SURFACE. IT HAS BEEN PLAYED RIGHT THROUGH AND PLAYS PERFECTLY. COPIES OF THIS ALBUM IN INFERIOR CONDITION TO THIS ALBUM ARE BEING SOLD BY INTERNATIONAL SELLERS ON EBAY FOR HIGHER PRICES PLUS EXTREMELY HIGH POSTAGE CHARGES.
