The Johnnys were a legendary Australian pub rock band that fused the fun of punk rock with the 3 minute pop sensibilities of Hank Williams. They were contemporaries of The Gun Club and LA's X. The Johnnys collapsed in the late 1980s only to reform for shows in 2004 where they once again proved themselves to be absolutely brilliant showmen. Their album Highlights of Dangerous Life is a widely regarded Australian classic, produced by Ross Wilson of Daddy Cool. They had at least two smash hits (Injun Joe-Bleeding heart) in Thessaloniki-Greece in the year 1987 on radio "Mousikos Diavlos"FM 97.3.
