  • The Easybeats were an Australian rock band that formed in Sydney, Australia, in late 1964, and disbanded at the end of 1969. They were the first rock and roll act from Australia to score an international pop hit with the 1966 single "Friday on My Mind".
    All five founding members were from families that had migrated to Australia from Europe: lead singer Stevie Wright and drummer Gordon "Snowy" Fleet were from England; rhythm guitarist George Young was from Scotland; lead guitarist Harry Vanda and bassist Dick Diamonde were from the Netherlands.

    Stevie Wright is my new favorite singer. His dance moves are unlike any others.

    It's pretty brave to attempt this song live. I mean this is not an easy song to put across. Very credible performance.

    River Deep, Mountain High
    When I was a little girl
    I had a rag doll
    Only doll I've ever owned
    Now I love you just the way I loved that rag doll
    But only now my love has grown
    And it gets stronger, in every way
    And it gets deeper, let me say
    And it gets higher, day by day
    And do I love you my oh my
    Yeh river deep mountain high
    If I lost you would I cry
    Oh how I love you baby, baby, baby, baby
    When you were a young boy
    Did you have a puppy
    That always followed you around
    Well I'm gonna be as faithful as that puppy
    No I'll never let you down
    Cause it grows stronger, like a river flows
    And it gets bigger baby, and heaven knows
    And it gets sweeter baby, as it grows
    I love you baby like a flower loves the spring
    And I love you baby just like tina loves to sing
    And I love you baby like a school boy loves his pet
    And I love you baby, river deep mountain high
    Oh yeah you've gotta believe me
    River deep, mountain high

    Aaaaaw, wondeful live performance !! Stevie is spot on.
    How is it possible to sing while performing on that high energy-level? A mistery.
    At 01:05 George maybe has a micro-blackout (sounds completely different than the studio version, or the original) but, if so, he saves the part beautifully.
    - You can really tell, they know each other inside out.
    I also like very much that we get a closer look at snowy performing.
