Life With And Without Johnny O'Keefe
An enthralling journey through rock'n'roll Sydney in the '50s and '60s, this is the first indepth look at the man who almost single-handedly established Australia's rock'n'roll industry, and the musical phenomenon that was Johnny O'Keefe.
But first and foremost this is Marianne's story, a memoir of uncompromising honesty documenting her stormy and passionate marriage to Johnny and her struggle to protect and support her three children through the tough times. Backstage of the glitz and excitement of the famous "Six O'Clock Rock" and legends like Sammy Davis Junior was a marriage turned sour by Johnny's mental instability, drugs and depression.
'Off The Record' is an inspiring story of the girl who became the woman behind Australia's greatest rock'n'roll icon.
