This is the same disc that Brett Leslie sold in 2013, quoting his brilliant description of popsike, "Extremely Rare Australian 1965  garage beat r n b classic from Johnny K - on the very obscure M.B (Mod Beat label) - as featured on "Its A Kave-In" compilations. Try finding a copy of one of these anywhere!!  In generic white dust cover.

Johnny K - Big Boat Up The River/I'm Mad Again - MB 001 Not sure if there was ever a release No. 2 or not!! 

Condition - a Strong G  both sides well worn but plays through fine. Name and a small tear on "A" side - see scans.
