lol didnt know australia and zealand were rockin in the 70's...although i guess no worldwide notoriety.....hmmmm....good musicians though...

[nzoz1976]

@handonrip Australia gave the world AC/DC... how could it not be obvious that something was going on down here with a band like that?

[pymats]

this mob came to my school in either 75 or 76, they were fantastic, also had the angels come as well when the keystone angels, they werent half bad either!!!

[ManFromMelbourne]

These guys did an Australian tor with AC/DC in 1977

They had the superb vocals of Mick Pealing back then and of course Mals great licks. The one thing they didn't have was great songs clearly illustrated by this garbage. Luckily one of Australia's greatest songwriters Andrew Durant joined the band and the result was argueably one of our greatest bands.

@handonrip

Fuck me man, no tougher crowd to please than a 70s Oz (and probly NZ too) pub crowd. Bands back then earned their dues or died in the arse.

[Flagg1991]

Randall Flagg on vocals...

[lesgl]

One of those new Oz country rock artists should pick up on this one and give it a spin

[Neptuneman07]

Very well-done rock band. Reminds me of Foghat.

[crossygirl]

@southernrocka Saw Mick at the Fleece in September.... fantastic!!

@wgooda That's the great Mal Eastick on lead guitar - still touring.

The late great songwriter Andy Durant joined the band later as rhythm guitarist.
