Title: The Javalins – For Twen (Rare Indo Beat)
Year/Genre: 1966, Indo Rock / Beat
Matrix #: SMC 83 880 (German Pressing)
Condition: VG+
Description: The Javalins were part of the Indo Rock movement, led by musicians of Indonesian heritage who settled in the Netherlands after World War II. For Twen, released in Germany in the mid-1960s, captured their blend of Western rock ’n’ roll with Indonesian rhythms and flair. This rare pressing reflects the cultural exchanges of postcolonial Europe, when displaced communities reshaped the sound of European beat music. For collectors, it represents one of the harder-to-find artifacts of Indo Rock, a genre that influenced both continental rock scenes and later world fusion styles.
