Re: Found: O'keefe autographed record

Any record at $1 is a great buy for J.OK. Quick, go buy it!

Is it a Canadian or US release? Let us know..

Are you sure this is the Australian Rocker Johnny O'Keefe's record?

In the early 60's he recorded in LA at Liberty and released through them, but never did in Nashville to our knowledge.

Have you compared the voice to another J.O'K record?

Very interesting!!!

I don't have a record player. Is there a comprehensive list of Johnny O'keefe recordings?

Don't leave us hanging Ken......wow, you may have uncivered something us Aussie didn't know about.....is this JOK can anyone say for sure

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Found: O'keefe autographed record

Can you scan the label in so we can see it clearly?

It is very unlikely it was THE Johnny O'Keefe as to our knowledge he only quickly visited a Nashville radio station on a 1959 tour to promote his Liberty record.
