Zonk! - Heya
1970



Zonk! were a one off recording project. Put together to record this single. They were something of a New Zealand super group. The singer, Shane was a household name due to his regular appearances on the TV music show C'Mon. Both drummer Bruno Lawrence and keyboardist Rufus Rehu were members of Quincy Conserve. Bruno would go on to form BLERTA. Bassist Rick White had been in Tom Thumb. Heya was released in the U.S.A. on United Artists.  American trade magazine Cashbox selected it as their "newcomer hit pick of the week". The B-side Long Life's Road was written by The Fourmyula member Wayne Mason.
