JO'K was a giant in the 50's Rock scene here in Australia. This is the second in my series of re-mastered album covers. Released in 1958 by Festival, "Yours Johnny" featured Johnny O'Keefe and The DJ's performing four songs: Roll Over Beethoven, Have I Told You Lately That I Love You, Comfort In My Heart, By The Light Of The Silvery Moon. I was excited to find these albums still available. One of them vinyl (pretty rare) The Very Best of The Wild One Audio CD BUY IT NOW THE WILD ONE Audio CD BUY IT NOW My Heart Belongs To You VINYL BUY IT NOW
