I mean, a song written in the 80's by an Australian band, that makes the top 10... and it's in 6/8... come on. The 80's in Australia is fantastic!!!

i agree was a great era for aussie bands

btw look for so much for love their first hit and break trough a great track.

i have a copy of this album on vinyl and saw them perform this before it became a hit. A very unkown and cool band. The funny thing about Aust music in the 80's is that the majority of young punters would never know some of the acts that were around then. Most are never main stream or known. In Sydney in the 80's there was literally hundreds of bands and at least 50 major acts at any time in the city with their own rig, light show etc etc, playing stadium rock. Incredible time.

@kingsx123 You'll find obtaining these albums difficult. The first was only on vinyl. The second only had a very limited CD release on top of the vinyl and the third I got from Amazon for $10 used, but that was a while ago. My advice would be to download them. Torrents of these are available and since all three are out of print, you aren't cheating anybody out of money.

Where can I find any albums from these guys.

I saw them live at The Sydney Entertainment Centre at a benefit concert for Kampuchean Refugees.

Big Pig,Crowded House, Boom Crash Opera and Jimmy Barnes was a special guest.He sang with Neil Finn.

It was one of the best concerts I've ever been to.

I also just purchased a Box Set called 101 Aussie Hits.

The 80's sure was a great decade for music.
