What Are You Listening To?

Wrapping up this 3 cd set of studio albums from this Australian group. This turns out the best of the 3, and would have rated higher if not for the final 4 live tracks which are duplicates of previous tracks. Wasted data. Not even sure the cheering and applause is not just inserted. Anyway, throw out them 4 and you have a pretty good album. Three tracks made the top grade, Blue Horizon, Wild Street Girl and Tin Gods. I have concluded Joe Camilleri sounds like either Elvis C, Van Morrison, or Garland Jeffreys, depending on the song. Music is sort of Springsteenish. This was the groups fourth album and the first to go top 20 in the homeland. Never made a dent here as far as I can tell. Daughters Of Glory, Maybe Tomorrow, and The Lat Frontier were all singles off of here, none my favorites. The highest charting of those was Daughters Of Glory. This will end my exploration of the group, with a summation of not great but not bad.
　

I LIKE THIS ALBUM
　

Worst Track - Daughters Of Glory (live)
　

Best Track - Blue Horizon

Love takes a fatal turn
Some thing you never learn
Truth comes cold and silently
Was I foolish to believe
In the last reprieve
Time is a ruthless enemy
Played out that legendary scene
No miracles in between
The heart of the desperate hours
How does it feel out on the reef
Let me spare you the grief
But you can take these withered flowers
The tide must prevail
What will be will be
Go ahead and save yourself
You cannot rescue me
Blue horizon bittersweet summer wine
Blue horizon my tragic valentine
