I don't think the easybeats get the credit they deserve. They have am amazing catalogue of songs and not just "Friday On My Mind". Check out songs:
Sorry
Land Of Make Believe
She's So Fine
Good Times
Fancy seeing You Here
I Can't Stand It
Mr. Riley Of Higginbottom & Clive

...and many more ​

"Friday on My Mind" is also currently cruising to victory in my garage poll:

I like "Hello, How Are You?". It's a nice, easy-going song. And "Sorry". I'll have to listen to some more and see what I think. So far they're quite an unusual band

Aussie rock FTW!

I quite like all of the Easybeats, but I've only got one song ("Friday on my Mind") in my library (as I refuse to download music illegally, and I don't have a huge income, so my music library doesn't have as much as I'd like )

Finally getting around to listening to some of this band's music. Other than their lyics being super silly, they did do some great experimentation with beats. I have to admit though, I am not that enthusiastic about the bubblegum sound of the 60's.

The "bubblegum sound" of the 60s was WWAAAAAAAAAAAYYY better than any of that crap that was vomited out in the ruddy 80s called "disco music"....yuuuuuuuuuuuuuKKK
