Easyfever indeed. This was another great song from the Easybeats who I couldn't stop listening to in the late 70s. And I find their sheet music in a the same music shop I bought my Fender telecaster. Clements in Russell street. Actually at first I bought a 12 string electric but it wouldn't stay in tune so I took it back and swapped it for the six string. Always wanted a 12 string electric but it still hasn't happened. When I went back to the shop I also picked up the Easybeats sheet music. Immediately I went through the pages looking for chords I could handle. I'll Make You Happy looked the easiest so the week after I convinced Little Murders to cover it. It turned out to be an absolute blast to play and the kids seemed to like it too. A few months ago we were mucking about with songs in the garage when we started playing this song. It was back in the set a few days later when we played the Lyrebird Lounge in Ripponlea.
Listening to the Easybeats and those brilliant songs it just makes me wonder how come they weren't up there with the greats. Their records sound so good.
