DOWNLOAD NO.179 - WESLEY THREE

The Wesley Three comprised of twin brothers Peter and Martin Wesley-Smith and Keith Conlon, all from Adelaide. They were a stylish, Kingston Trio-like ensemble, which attracted public attention through appearances on the national TV talent quest Showcase 1965. They recorded two albums in quick succession for CBS and enjoyed a brief burst of national folk singing success. Their hit single was “Little Tommy” which was backed by “Bound For South Australia”. The single got to #14 in South Australia in 1965. Interestingly, “Little Tommy”, written by Martin Wesley-Smith, was covered by American group The Serendipity Singers.

Here for download is a nice clean copy of "Little Tommy":
