Great Powerpop from this Canberra band (1978-80)
Michael (Spike) Moriarty (Voc, Guitar) Now In "The Gadflys"
Terry Sounder (Voc, Guitar) later in "No Concept"
Frankie Villegas (Bass)
Darcy Deegan (Drums)
Also Rans were Peter Palij (Guitar) & Archie Van Der Glass (Bass)
Even though they satrted life in Camberra, they soon made the move to Sydney, living in Bondi Beach and regularly playing the local dives (The Metropole Tavern, Astra Hotel etc).
Aparently they called it a day just before an organized nationwide tour was about to begin.
The 45 was released on Festival subsidiary Infinity with Festival house producer Martin Erdman sat behind the desk.
