Going through all these old PAL video tapes,  I had quite forgotten about so many Aussie bands and songs. Most of them had one or two hits and then faded into obscurity.

Wa Wa Nee, Ward 13, The Runners and The Swingers come immediately to mind. Oh and Pel Mel, the Numbers etc.   Ah.. good times!!

And I also found the video clip to "Body and Soul " from that 1981 or 1982 movie "Starstruck"which was set in Sydney. They're all dancing at the Harbour View Hotel in the Rocks. Had a few drinks there myself over the years as I used to work just a hundred metres or so from the pub.
