All the greatest hits that charted in Australia from the 60′s through to today
“Turn Up Your Radio” – The Masters Apprentices
WARNING! This video WILL make you queasy. The music is great but it looks like the cameraman only just discovered the zoom button on the camera and thought it would be cool to quickly zoom in and out in time to the music...continuously...for most of the song.

By the time I was discovering this great Aussie band, Mondo Rock had long since left the forefront of modern music and it wasn’t until many years after I had left high [...]
