Australian Crawl ORIG OZ LP Sirocco VG+ '81 EMI EMX108 James Reyne OZ Rock
Original OZ LP released in 1981 on EMI Records. Cat: EMX108. Comes in a gatefold sleeve.
Single-laden sophomore effort finds the Crawl mining the same territory as their debut, but with more polish and better hooks. "Things Don't Seem," "Unpublished Critics", and "Lakeside" (an ode to ogling at nudist beaches) all quickly became Crawl standards, while James Reyne's dedication to "Errol" (famed Australian actor Flynn, about whom Reyne decries, "I would give everything just to be like him") solidified both Flynn's and Reyne's epic stature in the Aussie mindset, pointing the way toward the Crawl frontman's lucrative solo career.
Tracks : Things don't seem/ Unpublished critics/ Love beats me up/ Oh no not you again/ Lakeside/ Trusting you/ Errol/ Can I be sure/ Easy on your own/ Love boys/ Resort girls.
There are a few light spindle marks on labels. Record has some light scuff marks and very light scratches that cause some light crackles and is in VG+ condition. Gatefold cover has light ring wear and marks and is in VG+ condition.
