Thanks Merv. Allen McMonagle wrote the music for that one and we knocked up a demo for the comp in his garage. The results should be out at the end of the month ...

All the best with it mate.

Had some good news that Nulla Records have selected I Never Cried For Elvis But I Shed a Tear For Slim to go on the next Not So Dusty 2 album now being mastered and to be released at Tamworth in January. Also My White Rose of Hope is being featured in the Lockyer Valley Garden of Hope and Courage. Nice to see your work being used. Take care mate.
