Part B of September 1966 brings us to the point where “Spicks and Specks” enters the charts. It is a turning point, not just for The Bee Gees but for Australian Music as well. Few groups were afforded the opportunity of releasing 12 (45 singles) before making it close to the top of the charts. This episode also brings us a couple of ‘lost’ Garage classics. With the help of the Pop Archives site, we untangle the fascinating back-stories of a couple of tunes that appear in this episode. We also attempt to untangle the use of the word “Sect” in many, many rock group titles. Oh, and there’s a Seekers’ song, which actually reached the Top 40 that I’ve never heard before.
Enjoy the episode!
