[Goldsack]

cool cover but that guy has either huge hands or a tiny head.

[nzoz1967]

@Goldsack or both... we really don't know who he is or where he's from... a part of Australia that the rest of the country has never heard of...

[mikenikesb101]

wait did this band make their own songs or just cover songs?

[nzoz1967]

@mikenikesb101 I got no idea who these guys, to be frank

[nearlyoutofideas]

What the? Who the? Oh dear, so bad you have to watch it to the end...! :) What show is this from? Not a music show per se, judging by the credits...

[nzoz1967]

@nearlyoutofideas it was called something like 'something else' or something like that.... yeah, it's a shocker of a band...

But let's face it. This is an extreme case of what was typical in the Australian music scene at the time. It was bands like this that got the work and the exposure, whilst only a few of the good ones got a little further than underground venues. These men are a mystery to me. I have no idea what they're about nor can I figure what they were thinking...

Fucking brilliant band....'The guy down the street' look is a corker!!

[vuilbakbek]

the band should be called The Inbreeds

[20FlightBlues]

interesting to hear this song without a real true R&B, bluesy voice singing it but it's not bad.

@guppypartz ---wow--- i thought voice was lousy

[guppypartz]

The clue maybe to finding what show this is .. Liza Goddard is mentioned in the credits.. From what I can tell she's a fairly well-known actress. Shocker of a band pretty much sums it up. But its oddness appeals to me. Also have to allow for the fact the sound is particularly poor.. that is, they probably sounded better

[guppypartz]

I love this .. The contrast between the earnestness of the singer and the indifference of his band is too much... His voice is cool, too.
