Barry Stanton
Barry Stanton (born 23 January 1941) is an Australian rock'n'roll musician. Discovered by fellow recording artist Johnny O'Keefe in 1958, Barry regularly performed on many Australian music programs such as ''Bandstand'', ''The Johnny O'Keefe Show'', ''Six O'Clock Rock'', ''Sing Sing Sing'', ''Saturday Date'', and ''Woody's Teen Time''.
He released six singles on Australian label Leedon Records, the first being ''Don't Let Go'' in 1960. His second release, the Johnny O'Keefe composition ''Don't You Worry 'Bout That'', reached number 3 on the Sydney Top 40 in September 1960. Two other singles were issued, but his fifth and biggest release ''Beggin' On My Knees'' - written by Barry's brother Rod - reached number one in 1962. Signed by RCA in 1964 he released ''A Tribute To The King'' - a song written for Barry by fellow musician and good friend Johnny Devlin - followed by ''My Little Emmy'' in 1965.
Even though he was one of the most popular performers of his era, Stanton achieved minimal success outside of Australia. He continues to perform regularly around the country along with other artists from the JO'K era.
==Early life==
Barry was born in London, England in 1941. After the Second World War had ended, a five-year-old Barry and his family packed up and moved to Australia, settling in the Sydney suburb of Neutral Bay. By early teens Barry had fallen victim to the rock'n'roll craze that was sweeping the world and was soon writing his own songs while teaching himself to play guitar. Leaving school at 16 to become an apprentice motor mechanic, he used any spare time he had with his guitar doing what he truly loved. It wasn't long before he started his own band 'Barry Stanton & the Boppers' and was playing regular gigs at the local dancehalls. Word spread quickly about Barry's raw style of rock'n'roll and his popularity continued to grow considerably with each performance.
