the loss of an icon like Glen Wheatley is a sad event ,he was part of the Australian music scene over a long period of time and will be missed by lovers of music for a long time.

[@ArrDee49]

Turned 65 this year and I still remember this being played on the radio like it was last week!!

[@servantofgod5642]

It was only last week Ardee, this is just an acid trip we're having you're still only 11 .

[@fransue56]

Talent and music like this does not get dated, awesome!

[@anton4940]

Loved this band and song when I was 11 years old and still do 53 years later Iconic Aussie band RIP Glenn Wheatley

[@Anthony-zz3qy]

❤ get that into you 2023 , rafter shaker from one of the best Aussie bands in our music history .so so good ✌️✌️

[@catarsetrophy136]

did it for me! 🤗

[@grumpycarlsworld]

When you hear that line ♫"15 years today and you remember how"♪ And here we are more than 50 years on, and still listening like this was yesterday!! (original version)

[@freeman10000]

Australian rock is the world's best kept secret. From back in the day until now...brilliant music.

[@Angus1966]

The Aussie rock scene is more , poker Machines killed off most live venues

[@xenamerry]

I was there, then & I'm 71 now. Loved it all & still do!

[@judycripps2606]

I'm 71 and I'm still here

[@joycescanlan2893]

We had it all in Australia. The very best bands of the world. 🌺 60s 70s 80s growing up in Australia, I was so lucky. This is real music.

[@bondioneohfourthree7488]

OZ & NZ bands

[@julie_annsmith4515]

I was a teenager in the 70s living in Australia the music was great not like today so glad I found so many songs I grew up with

[@michaelhawes6340]

To be fair, we had a very small number of truly great bands in those days. These guys were one of the best, but we did have a lot of copycat junk in the 60s and half of the 70s. The late 70s and 80s were the peak period for A/NZ rock, but it's all history now.

[@freeman10000]

To this day Australia has great bands. King Gizz, Tame Impala, The Chats, Pacific Avenue, Skeggz, Courtney Barnett, Polaris etc... Australia has always had the best bands.

[@mark3783]

And the Apprentices were the best!

[@rosemarym8388]

Oz rock!..still the best, still "turn up my radio" every time I hear it, we are so lucky..🇦🇺😍

[@parkernoah3596]

RIP Glenn, I loved this as a child and at 58 I still love it :(

[@ronfreeman5857]

i'm 68..lovin it..

[@kitwalker2968]

I heard this at the ripe old age of 7 and that was it. Rock obsession. In my teens taught myself guitar and went on to play in many bands...Ive always referenced Masters Turn Up Your Radio as one of three key songs that turned me onto rock. I told Jim that when I supported him at a gig 30 years later.

[@alexandradaley]

I loved it when I was 14yrs old and still LOVE it at 56yrs.............It even sounds better.

[@time4sleeping]

+Alexandra Tammekand Same here, had the record at 10yrs old & still love the song. Same age as you........ if only they could reunite now. Crowd would be on their feet but they played it at Cotton Keays & Morris shows.

[@Trevorpn]

I was a couple of years older and it was awesome

[@gary36104]

Sure Hendrix did a cover of this

[@HalfBreedCreations]

Yes good sound. Good recording quality. Certainly holds up today

[@hawkinsa90]

Before 2021 sounds betta!

[@CrystalsBeyondThe7Veils]

Loved this song when it first came out and had in on a 70's mixed LP. Loved it just as much when Jim Keays and his band were rocking it live at the Surfair Hotel at Marcoola in the 80's. woo hoo.... still love it in 2022

[@samtomarchio9703]

I listened to all this music on my radio saw many of them live as a teanager

[@carolcollins4878]

I was one in 1956, so grateful to have been there Cx

[@garynapthine9015]

I turned it up in the 60s and I'm still turning up the radio .. thanks Masters

[@BeardedBA4Real]

Gary Napthine Master's Apprentices have been a fave a long, long time...needed way more airplay here in the States!

[@julie_annsmith4963]

What a real classic brings back memories I still love this song at least it was good music 😎🤩

[@jillhodgson3221]

I was 13 when this came out. They were the first live band I ever saw and Jim Keays signed my record after the concert.

[@JT-ts9ey]

First band I ever saw live as well. Adelaide 1970 or thereabouts. (Headquarters)

[@Anthony-zz3qy]

Cool story Tks ✌️✌️

[@walterbulyga2588]

Saw them last Sunday night at Woodville Town Hall, Adelaide. Absolutely brilliant - sounded better than ever - they had so many hits and threw in some Van Morrison / THEM, and Rolling Stones numbers.

[@Smiley-ez8li]

RIP Jimmie. Loved the music you made!!

[@nevilledarman8n21]

Another great Aussie band 😍😍😍🇦🇺

[@barnfresh5491]

[@alanlane3670]

One of the best rock songs ever written.....

[@julieeadie3105]

Huge crush on Jim..67 and still loving it..turn up your radio..

[@alanstrom2221]

Words fail me as the tears flow. Glenn was a very important person in the Australian music industry. The feelings run very deep for music fans everywhere. He wasn't just Glenn Wheatley, he was GLENN WHEATLEY.!!!! I'm currently playing a Best of Masters CD and track 10 is a LIVE version of FUTURE OF OUR NATION. When I was 10 yrs old I got the compilation album EXPLOSIVE HITS 1971 and FUTURE OF OUR NATION really grabbed my attention. The year before I heard TURN UP YOUR RADIO and my brother and sisters and myself would take turns jumping off the lounge when Jim Keays would unleash those famous screams. Well, somebody had to put the needle on the record, it was 1970. LOL!! Glenn will always be remembered as an icon of Australian music and the man that re-ignited the career of John Farnham. Glenn mortgaged his house to fund the manifestation of WHISPERING JACK, the biggest selling Australian album of all time. With a heavy heart, I send my condolences to Glenn's family, friends and his supporters. RIP Glenn Wheatley

[@Miiameasles]

LOVE Masters Apprentices. Remember seeing them at The Ted Mulry Benefit Gig in 2001 & Glenn looked so happy and proud. Great band and great loss in the death of of Jim Keays in 2014. Australia had the best rock n roll bands of the 70's.

[@samtomarchio9703]

We had some great music in Australia great bands great times

[@MarvelDcImage]

Kind of taken aback at the thought that in 1970 Rock is only 15 years old as a music form. Never heard of these guys from Australia but they came up in my music feed for 1970s hard rock bands.

[@terrencewalsh5923]

Great band mate so tight

[@terrencewalsh5923]

They started it all masters easybeats etc

[@peternash2228]

I was lucky enough to see these guys practicing in a basement in Gawler South Australia,about 1968 .Great sound then and still great now.

[@alanstrom2221]

That would be a memory to cherish. Would've been way cool.

[@sambonnici5070]

Just best ever had great memories

[@hoptoads]

Great Band, Great Song. Loved it then, still love it now!

[@JohnJohn-zn8ib]

Excellent words, ‘ everybody’s running from what they did a long time ago ‘.

[@WeAreWEiRDOS3]

I used to watch this fantastic band in the 60s mainly at Sebastians disco in Melbourne. What a real classic brings back memories I still love this song at least it was good music 😎🤩 RIP Jimmy

[@xenamerry]

I used to go to those city discos, Sebastians as well as Catcher, Biting Eye, Penny Farthing, Thumpin' Tum, 10th Avenue etc. There was Opus in St. Kilda town hall, too as well as local dances.

[@andreashyde1042]

Seeing then live in 1975 at the Pub and they still ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In 2018

[@maxschulz6984]

[@eoinociarain7986]

Lucky to meet Jim Keays at the City hotel in Collingwood early 90's. He had just played and the owner of the pub introduced me afterwards. We had a round of beers, really friendly bloke and legend who was taken way too young.

Check out their “Nickelodeon” album recorded in Perth when they returned from the UK, then. Both this original version and Because I Love You were, as I recall,recorded at Abbey Road studios during that trip. Nickelodeon featured the single “Future of Our Nation”.

Saw this on Go set. Born 62

[@pwatts8846]

One of the songs not allowed to be played on the radio during the 1970 radio ban. So it bombed at the time, has become a standard since.

[@gnnmusic]

yep we had it all. The best bands in the world. This was unique. Please list the horns - tpt and saxes. Simple riff but effective and Jim sold it so well.

[@originaluddite]

Love the inclusion of horns in this track. I've noticed it's a characteristic of Aussie rock that, while overseas the genre was abandoning the use of brass, here it persisted well into the 80s. I'm guessing it might be because we never had much of a soul music scene and the brass players had to be put to use somehow. :)

[@gostrum1]

Yeah later on The Saints ‘Know Your Product’
