From 1965-1969 he was the lead singer for the Sydney-based rock and roll band The Easybeats, widely regarded as the greatest Australian pop band of the Sixties. During his time with The Easybeats he was popularly and affectionately known as “Little Stevie”. He co-wrote many of their early hits (including “Sorry” and “I’ll Make You Happy”), and was vocalist on their biggest hit “Friday on My Mind” (1967), which, in 2001, was voted the Best Australian Song of All Time and made the Top 20 in both the UK and the U.S. He was also renowned for his energetic stage performance which included acrobatic back-flips and mod dance moves. After the break-up of The Easybeats in 1969, Stevie returned to Sydney from England. A thorough discography of his work lists lineups of the Stevie Wright Band in 1972 . However, other sources list him as playing only with the band Black Tank during that period. In 1972-73 he won national acclaim for his performance as Simon Zealotes in Jesus Christ Superstar. He then achieved solo success when his old Easybeats band-mates Harry Vanda and George Young (now turned record producers) returned from the UK in 1973. He formed his own backing band, The Stevie Wright band for live performances in this time. In 1974 Wright released the single “Evie (Parts 1, 2 & 3)”. Written and produced by Vanda & Young, it became a hit — irrelevantly the only 11-minute song to chart at #1 anywhere in the world — and is now regarded as an Australian rock classic. Two Vanda and Young produced LPs followed: Hard Road and Black-eyed Bruiser. Wright, however, struggled with drug and alcohol addiction, which ultimately de-stabilised his new found success Track Listing 01 - Hard Road 02 - Life Gets Better 03 - The Other Side 04 - I Got You Good 05 - Dancing In The Limelight 06 - Didn't I Take You Higher 07 - Evie (Parts I, II & III) 08 - Movin' On Up 09 - Commando Line 10 - BONUS TRACK - Evie (Concert Of The Decade 1979) .
