Australian-Charts-EP.45 1966 June

from Australian Music Archives · host rock61

After the Christmas/New Year break, we return and head into the Australian Music hitting the charts in June 1966. The highest charting 45 was a double-sider for Johnny Young & Kompany on the Clarion label out of Perth. In fact, three Perth groups hit the charts this month, along with a group out of Hobart and another out of Adelaide; certainly reflecting a more national chart. Sydney and Melbourne artists are also represented with the likes of The Vince Melouney Sect, The Groop and Ronnie Burns. On an international level, four future Number Ones hit the chart. Which one lasted the longest? And which Australian artist, outlasted them all at 37 weeks? Enjoy the music!
