About this album

Legend presents The La De Das as one of New Zealand’s most compelling rock groups, drawing together material that highlights their blend of tough guitar drive, melodic songwriting and loose, energetic feel. Issued in 1975, this compilation reflects a band that moved confidently between original songs and rugged covers, with a repertoire that could sit alongside the era’s harder-edged rock while retaining a distinct local identity. The selection shows why the group remained important in Australasian rock history: they bridged beat-era roots and heavier early-70s rock, and their music helped define the sound of a scene that was often overlooked outside New Zealand.
