Finally heard this album in its entirety over the weekend, and I can only describe these songs as completely perfect.
Rowland S Howard - best Australian song writer alive.
Please play more shows soon Rowland!

....................
Yet you hadn't heard till the weekend? Ummm... alright!
i'd heard songs here and there, and heard the songs live etc, but hadn't actually listened to the album, or in full
great record
^^ agreed
definitely in my all time top ten. my favourite track is dead radio (the one quoted above) but the whole album is brilliant. rowland is an outstanding lyricist.
i do wish i had it on vinyl with the bonus track, shut me down.
I still prefer Harry Howard (These Immortal Souls, Pink Stainless Tail) to Rowland Howard.
It's not a popularity contest, just my own personal taste.
Harry has the nicest guitar..
all respect to harry! his guitar work blows my mind and is a beautiful thing to watch.
Any of that mind left after all this blowing pagey? Zeems a lota things is pop'n ya top these days!
Good too see.
Aww Junks, you leave pagey's mind alone. She be cool!
Hey, I was being funny! No negativity intended.
She says things in blow'n her mind a lot these days. I just have a funny image of the next time I see her, All Zombie like'n shit......" Hmmmmm......HARRY.....Hmmm...." hehe...
I can see why ladies would go all weak-kneed at the thought of Harry Howard.
I'm not gay though!!
aah junks it all balances out after giving up the green and i suspect there may be some salvalgeable bits of mind left. maybe.
harry is indeed a very handsome man. nothing to be ashamed of hand hell. i wholly endorse homo fantasies about this man!
i do wish those lads would play another gig already.
I still haven't seen Pink Stainless Tail

Brunswick St Polyester had copies last night
Essentially it's a 3-sided album with ''Ocean'' on Side D by itself.
Just listened through for the first time, sounds great, very chuffed - the packaging isn't too crash hot but honestly, why worry? it's about the music...right?
The word Deluxe is what pissed me off more then anything.
+ I always liked the inside of the gate fold.
Called JB in Prahan (where I'd seen it advertised before release) and they said they had none, but looked up on their computer and informed me that Bourke St had 11... I made the hour long drive into the city, during peak hour, looked through the store and couldnt find it. Was then told those 11 on the computer were pre-ordered. Made it down to Polyester in Flinders Lane where they has at least half a dozen on display... $40, but well worth it.
yeah saw it at polyester brunswick today
My order was on my doorstep this morning = A happy trousers.
The vinyl sounds incredible. I was late to Rowland, bummed I never saw him live. TSF has become one of my favourite albums.
i see on the polyester website their copies are gone - has anyone seen this anywhere else recently? a bit late to this :( should have got on it months ago
Title in Northcote has copies late last week.
Hadn't really given this album regular play since it first came out, but can't stop listening since I got the the vinyl re-issue.
What an absolutely fucking fantastic record it is. Hard to believe it just flew under the radar upon it's initial release.
Oh and Punch, give Greville a call - they may still have some copies.
Punch: if no luck with stores there's one on Ebay (Sydney) for $50 byitnow; or an original copy in Canada that'll be going for zillions.
city polyester had a copy last friday.
Reading's Carlton had some yesterday Punch
I love it, sounds so good.
Title Fitzroy, i grabbed the last one there.
Touch wood, they may have other store copies
good cover version:
