We have released this new episode to pay tribute to Col Joye who passed away on 5th August 2025, Aged 89. To put it simply, Col Joye is Australian Music Royalty. A leader of the Rock n Roll revolution in this country from the very start, Col Joye and the Joy Boys were at the forefront of spreading this new 'devils music' to the masses in the late 1950's. Col Joye and the Joy Boys were the first Australian act to hit No.1 on the local charts and in all, they have released over 50 singles, 30 EP's and 40 albums. An ARIA Hall of Famer and also awarded an Order of Australia, Col Joye has achieved plenty on the actual music side of things, with a string of No.1 hits and literally thousands of sold out shows, however, it is the business side of the industry that Col and his many family members of the Jacobsen clan have found amazing success.

A star of the hit parade and constant chart topper, Col was also the star of the iconic television show Bandstand.
