[ Frenzy / 2 CD ]
Release Date: Friday 11 March 2022
1964: The Year That NZ Music Came Of Age. A year that saw us exporting our music to the USA, Canada, Europe and Australia. For the first time the percentage of locally written music was over 20% and climbing. While the Beatles were invading New Zealand, Ray Columbus & The Invaders, Dinah Lee and Max Merritt & His Meteors & Bill and Boyd were invading Australia. Weekly TV shows 'In The Groove' and 'Lets Go' continued to showcase our burgeoning young music scene.
You can now re-live this exciting year through this 70 track-28 page ephemera laden expose of the Kiwi Music Scene of 1964, which is the sixth volume in this on going series of year by year CD's chronicling Kiwi music.
