I remember first seeing them at a concert in Yass in early 1963. My friend Dennis Flynn had met Dave Bridge before and we got to talk to them at the end of the show. Dennis had just acquired a brand new Red Fender Stratocaster (the first Fender in Canberra) and brought it to show Dave Bridge. OMG, Dave Bridge was such a fantastic guitar player!

Did you know Terry Hearne who's playing bass here and who went on to form and play outstanding lead guitar in The Allusions?

Killer track!! Probably Dave's biggest hit. And the greatest version of 'Guitar Boogie Shuffle' is by The Joy Boys with Dave on guitar. Please, if anyone has a film clip of that, put it up on You Tube.

Dave was so good and it was a big loss for The Joyboys when he left!
