Hi Thirdfinger,
My apologies, I don't know too much about this Malaysian band except that they were one of the most popular groups in during that era. Their greatest hits were probably Just As I Am and Do What You Gonna Do. A compilation of their hits were released on CD in the year 2000, titled "The Strollers Collection". I believe you can still pick up a copy in one of the stores in Malaysia. Cheers.

boss, attended a function yesterday at local pub... band playing was Strollers-2. Only the drummer - think its Hassan idris- from the original band is still around. rest are different guys from the same era. music was good though. They and the Falcons play at a local pub called -The Old Skool_ in PJ.
cheers - Anpu
Thanks for the great news, Anpu. That joint is a must for my next visit to KL. Keep in touch, pal.
Best Regards,
hey guys, I was a fan of the strollers in the 70s.I live in Melbourne now. I met Billy Chang in one of the nite clubs here. He gave me his card. Doing some business. I turfed his card off accidently. Perhaps, if we can get these guys together,with the exception of nand kumar, and get them to have a gig!
I see a lot of blogs but am unable to get in to reply. even on this one, I had to try several times.Await your comments.
They are one of the best band of their time . True band with self made style and flair
