CONDITION: Record and cover aremint
They were the first group to achieve Australian chart success with a surfing instrumental, months in advance of any American releases. Both singles to date had been credited to Digger Revell's Denver Men. Johnny Devlin took over as the group's manager and guided them through their most successful period. He wrote and produced the group's next two Top 40 hit singles; one instrumental called Nightrider in April that was credited to The Denvermen; one vocal called Building Castles In The Air in May that was credited to Digger Revell with The Denvermen. Johnny was also using The Denvermen, minus Revell, as a backing band on his own live performances and recordings.
By this time there was a new dance craze called 'the stomp' sweeping Australia so it was only natural that their next hit single was another Johnny Devlin penned instrumental called Avalon Stomp. The single made the Sydney Top 10 and the Top 40 nationally in August 1963. Johnny Devlin's appointment to the Artist and Repertoire department of RCA Records saw the group move to that label in September 1963.
