[CRAZY-HORSE]

THIRSTY MERC "thirsty merc" cd, 2005

Aussie group Merc's debut set,
this album was released with two different covers here...not sure why as the track listings are exactly the same??, i have the cover on the right.
alt rock sounds here, songs mostly themed on those of late teen,early twenty-somethings...
nothing on here i dont like, but some of the like songs did get the benefit of the doubt as i couldnt decide whether i liked them or not...
five singles off this one,Tracks 1,2,5,6 and 14, "someday,someday" was the highest placed single here reaching #19, on the other side of the Tasmanian Strait in New Zealand "in the summertime" reached #12, that is my favourite one on here...
album only reached #15 on the charts here but did get a double platinum award...
saw these guys play support to Meatloaf last year, they were pretty good,but compared to Meat, they were brilliant LOL
