Ah a version of Melbourne long gone..i think the clip makes this song for me...
-
So great to go back in time to this great music
-
Superb!

I also am surprised, as a record collector and musician, that I have only just discovered these guys. But even with proper promotion here I think they would still be as known or obscure as tortured genius Arthur Lee and LOVE.

you guys are silly

Oops, I forgot the Church.

Hmm . . . Go Betweens, Triffids, Nick Cave, Paul Kelly, the Saints (and all things Ed Kuepper), nowadays Augie March, Panics, Sleepy Jackson, Drones. On a per capita basis Oz chews up the U.S. and spits it back out into the Pacific Ocean. And I'm a Yank!

I have to admit, as a person from the U.S. & knowing most of the music and artists from the late 1960's onward, until I saw the Masters Apprentices' vids here on youtube I had never heard of them. Listening to them, though now, I do wonder if they had been promoted better in the U.S. from what I'm hearing I could have seen them becoming as big as Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin did -- too bad for the lack of promotion in the U.S. for a very worthwhile sounding group.

In the 60s the UK was seen as the country where Aussie bands could "make it big". The Masters Apprentices, The Easybeats, The Twilights & probably many others went to the UK. Strangely it was really only a folk group The Seekers who dig make it big there.
