The 1986 Listening Post - The Johnnys - Highlights of a Dangerous Life

The Johnnys - Highlights of a Dangerous Life



#340/2020
August 1986
The Johnnys
Highlights of a Dangerous Life
Genre: Roots Rock
4.25 out of 5

Highlights:
The Day Marty Robbins Died
Move It
Slip Slap Fishin’


So, here’s an Aussie band that sounds like it would never have gotten out of the land down under inasmuch as it doesn’t really explode in a way that would ignite the eardrums of 80s kids but it’s a rock solid set of roots rockers that got my feet tapping and body swaying in my seat. 
The could just as easily fit into the Acid Revival category or Psychobilly. I would expect to find these on a Nuggets LP.
A bunch of fun this little spinner of pub rockers.
