Lacey, That coloured balls record is quite good as an early slab of Aussie high energy ballsy punky rock n roll, Championed by mid 70's sharpies and skins. For a '73 aussie release it kicks a fuck load of ass. I guess it could fit into the proto punk mold. More on the hard rock side though than punk, A tiny bit spacey at times too. I'd say grab it and their second album Heavy metal kid if you see 'em around if they're not too pricey. That "dude" would happen to be Lobby loyde who was held in high regards as an Aussie guitar hero, He's played some rough n mean rnb with the 60's australian rnb outfit The Purple Hearts and a psych group I'm totally mindblanking on who I wouldn't reccomend going for too much and some other things like the Aztecs . He later went on to produce Australian X's Aspirations and work by The Sunnyboys and other things. But yeah back to the point grab Coloured balls if they're not too pricey.
End essay.
