SUNNYBOYS "HAPPY MAN" (1981) . . . . GREAT AUSSIE OUTFIT, PERFECT SIXTIES INSPIRED POST PUNK POWER POP . . . . HAILING FROM MY HOME TOWN, JENNY AND SINGER/SONGWRITER, JEREMY OXLEY, WERE THE GOLDEN COUPLE . . . . JEREMY WENT ON TO FIGHT A LONG BATTLE WITH SCHIZOPHRENIA AND THEY SPLIT . . . . BUT NOT BEFORE MISS TUBBS WAS IMMORTALIZED AS THE OBJECT OF AFFECTION IN MOST OF THE TUNES ON THE FIRST KILLER ALBUM.

I'M ONLY TOO STOKED TO TELL YOU MY FIRST BAND HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO SUPPORT THE SUNNY'S ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS AT THEIR ABSOLUTE BLISTERING, SWEAT-DRENCHED, LIVE SHOW PEAK AND OVER TIME I ALSO BECAME FRIENDS WITH THE LOVELY GIRL WHO IS THE SUBJECT OF THIS AND THE PREVIOUS POST . . . . YEAH, LIFE'S BEEN GOOD.
