AUSTRALIAN CRAWL "sirocco" vinyl/cd 1981
career stats:
studio albums...............4
singles........................17
this album....................#1 AU
singles:
"things don't seem"............#11 AU
"errol"..............................#18 AU
"oh no, not you again:"......#58 AU
Aussie band's sophomore set....
album title was taken from the name of Aussie actor Errol Flynn's yacht...
theres even a song on here called "errol", which is a tribute to the swashbuckler....
cool lightweight pop on here, they called it "80s surf pop/rock" back in the day, but I didn't!....
good catchy stuff on here IMO....
and to show how big these guys were over their short lifespan of four albums, in the end of year
charts tally for 1981 this was the second biggest selling album in Australia after Lennon's "double fantasy"
and ahead of AC/DC's "back in black" (third place)...
I LIKE THIS ALBUM:
worst track: love beats me up
best track: oh no, not you again
