Ayers Rock - Crazy Boys/The Hamburger Song (vinyl)

[Boddo1221]

Thanks for putting up crazy boys by ayers rock.

I bought that album when I was 14 and completley wore it out. One of my favorite pieces on vinyl from them was there version of boogie woogie waltz they did on the reefer cabaret live double album. I cant find it anywhere and wondered if you had it?

I have the vinyl also. I play cuts quite often on my radio show, Greg's Grooves. Their cover of Weather Report's "Boogie Woogie Waltz" still ranks as one of the best jazz-rock,fusion tracks of all time. They made me check out WR immediately. I am forever thankful for that. A great band!!

what ...comment pending approval !!whats that shit???

Very King Crimson. These Aussie boys must have been inspired by those best Crimson years around '69 - '73.

This stuff is HOT!

I love these guys, We used to own the Sydney Cove Tavern & have these guys on quite often on a wednesday night, They were one of the best live acts by far back in the mid to late 70s

also a couple of tracks on a double live ..did a version of gimme shelter and boogie woogie waltz think it was live from much more ballroom

[johnnyguitarbaker]

@drumsontherange It was recorded at the ormond hall Melb. at a gig called the reefer caberet. Album was called areeferderci or something similar

[samjenp]

@johnnyguitarbaker, I'm pretty sure this was recorded at the 'Refer Cafe'

The dope ran freely in those days and if i remember correctly it was busted more than once.

Not sure why it closed it down, but they had a fair well gig that included a number of great artists.

This gig was recorded and called 'Areeferdeci' (a play on the Italian word Arivadeci)

A great recording - wish I still had it !!

[drumsontherange]

third album very scarce to ; hamish stuart replaced mark kennedy..shorter songs with keys

[buggadugg]

I am a new fan .... I am sure I am going to like more of their stuff.

Even a Hodaka showed up.

Glad you liked it. Their follow-up LP 'Beyond' was much more in the jazz fusion vein, but still quite good. I might upload some more in the not too distant future!
