Back in the late 1950's, early 1960's Johnny and the Hurricanes were THE American band to listen and dance to! Music styles were rapidly changing and music such as this was soooo different (at the time) and they had droves of teenagers demanding their music.

They also were popular in Europe, specifically Hamburg at often played at the Star-Club where the opening act was The Beatles, before they found commercial success.

Johnny and the Hurricanes had a distinctive sound, through their use of sax and organ especially but also notable on many songs is Dave's guitar

Members were:

Johnny Paris - saxophonist

Paul Tesluk - Hammond chord organ

Dave Yorko - lead guitar

Lionel "Butch" Mattice - bass

Bill "Little Bo" Savich - drums

Johnny And The Hurricanes - Red River Rock

Axis - EMI Records

Australian release

Cover is in very good condition, no seam splits, no tears and very light edge wear from normal handling.

New inner plastic sleeve

Vinyl is in good condition, inspected under a white halogen light source I can see just a couple of very light scratches/scuff marks on each side. I then played both sides entirely and at times I could hear a slightly elevated level of surface noise but still a very good play with no significant click/pops.

New outer protective plastic sleeve
