Never seen all this before in one run like that. Thanks. Countdown would only play snippets. Totally iconic Melbourne crew, big influence, played the tape till it wore out, many many times/quoted these songs so many many times with arty friends. Still think of them.

Under-rated and underplayed when it came out. Great stuff. Sean Kelly is a hidden Aussie talent
