it is a record.... made in the Usa with a picture sleeve....1. Gap That Opened 2. Hands up in the Air 3. Love Me to Death 4. City Flat 5. Her Charity 6. Sleeping Time 7. Great Wall 8. Bombshell 9. Caught Between Two Towns 10. Too Hot to Think Originally a 5 piece formed in Melbourne, 1985. This Australian rock band, like many before them, got their grounding from the pub rock circuit. Striking debut blended the muscular rock of "Listen Like Thieves" period INXS with an almost English melodic richness - not dissimilar from Tears For Fears. Power vocalist Dale Ryder is backed by a trademark chant style vocal from the others; which included the talent of founding members and writing partnership Richard Pleasance (guitar/bass) and Peter Farnan (guitar) credited also as executive producers, alongside tragic producer Alex Sadkin, who died shortly after. BCO were made full by Greg O'Connor (keys) and drummer Peter Maslen. After five hit singles at home including No. 1 "Great Wall," another "Her Charity" did well in getting them noticed in the States as did "Onion Skin" (a top ten rock chart hit) and "Talk About It" from second disc These Here Are Crazy Times. Sadly the hand of fate that helped INXS, Icehouse and Midnight Oil find success abroad has thus far eluded BCO, although they well deserve it. Further misfortune would occur in the departure (due to Tinnitus) of Pleasance and label wrangles. They finally settled on BMG for their next album Fabulous Beast which debued Pleasance replacement Ian Tilley......great for djs.....still gets airplay on flashback radio stations like KROQ & Star......very cool.....great for collectors..fans of alternative,new wave, Boom Crash Opera ,retro 80s, wil like this...winner pays postage ...$4.00 in the USA (foreign pays applicable)...good luck!..Powered by eCRATER .
