As I sit here on a Sunday afternoon, a song from my youth has just popped up on my iPod...
About five or so years ago, I bought a greatest hits compilation by this Aussie band and was surprised by how versatile their sound was. Seriously, there were songs on that CD that I never would have guessed were by this band. Of course, the songs that made it on the radio in the late 70s and early 80s had a very mainstream sound...
"Reminiscing" has always reminded me of being like 6 or 7 years old, living near Washington, DC. That was a relatively nice time in my life, even though my dad was trying to gets used to being a civilian again.
When I was older, they came out with "Lonesome Loser", which was pretty yucky...
And the somewhat creepy song, "Night Owl"...
"Happy Anniversary" is a pretty good song.
And so was "Take It Easy On Me"...
Australia was a relatively fertile ground for pop stars back in my day. Sometimes it's nice to hear from these guys, even though they haven't been big hit makers in some time...
