AUSTRALIA - IMPORT

This special two CD Liberation Blue collectors' edition is a roadmap through Rock' N' Roll history - and associated byways - as a formidable line-up of Australian household names present some of the songs that have helped to define them and inspire them. Disc One spans from the Master's Apprentices' heavy psychedelia of '68 through the twitchy '70s soul of the Sports; the splintered '80s radio landscape of the Choirboys, the Mentals, the Models and the Saints to the '90s pop of Taxi ride, Christine Anu and Diesel. Disc Two is another level of revelation. On one hand there's expressed simpatico between contemporaries: James Reyne covers Paul Kelly, Mick Thomas - Australian Crawl, the Church re-visit the Triffids, Dragon - U2, Jenny Morris - INXS, Nick Barker - Van Halen, Vika & Linda Bull interpret Stephen Cummings. Then the roots run deeper, as the Black Sorrows pay homage to Van Morrison, Jon Stevens to John Lennon, Michael Spiby to the brothers Gibb, Ian Moss to Creedence and Mark Seymour to a sentiment as old as the first fleet. Liberation. 2007.
