Terry Dean and the Nitebeats

Terry Dean and the Nitebeats

Here's a nice beat record from New Zealand. This was the bands first release from early in 1964. The song featured here was written by the UK songwriting team of John Carter and Ken Lewis (who also had the band Carter-Lewis and the Southerners). The song was also recorded by The Cicadas from Australia and I believe was originally done by the Marauders in the UK.

There's a great history of the band with some fantastic pictures HERE.

Listen here:
