Description:

And Friends 1979 - 1982 by Primitive Calculators, released 1 January 2005, includes the following tracks: "Signals", "Mud In My Eye", "Do That Dance (Unplugged)", "Point Blank" and more. This version of And Friends 1979 - 1982 comes as a 1xCD. -

After reissuing the landmark 1979 live album by Melbourne's ferocious synth-punk snarlers Primitive Calculators in late 2004, Chapter Music follows up with a crucial compilation of tracks by Primitive Calculators and their friends from the legendary Melbourne Little Band scene. Including the Calculators' only studio recording, the single 'I Can't Stop It b/w Do That Dance,' plus the Little Bands compilation EP (both originally released in 1979 and now highly prized collectors items), plus numerous live and rehearsal recordings, the CD examines a particularly fertile and distinctive time in Melbourne music history, which has been discussed in hushed tones ever since. It takes in bands with names like Thrush and the Cunts and Too Fat to Fit Through the Door, and ranges from disaffected Fitzroy art-punk to Sudanese tribal chanting recorded in London. With liner notes culled from a revealing interview with Prim Calcs members Dave Light, Denise Hilton and Frank Lovece, plus rare photos and song lyrics, Primitive Caluclators And Friends is a revelatory companion piece to their live album, which received a rave review from Maximum Rock 'n' Roll and a 10 out of 10 Album of the Month feature in Australian Vice Magazine, amongst other stellar clippings on it's reissue two years ago.

"The second reissue volume from Melbourne's legendary late 70s synth punk band the Primitive Calculators compiles their one and only studio single I Can't Stop It b/w Do That Dance from 1979, plus live and rehearsal recordings, as well as the entire 1979 Little Bands EP, a wonderful document of the part-time side-projects and random bands that grew up around the Calculators in their heyday." Tracks 3, 4, 5, 12, 13 recorded live at Champion Hotel, Fitzroy, 1979 Tracks 6, 7 recorded live at Crystal Ballroom, St Kilda, 1979
