MONDO ROCK

Digitally remastered with eight bonus tracks! Ross Wilson was recently described, by noted Australian rock historian Ian McFarlane, as "one of this country’s national treasures". With a 45+ year career, that continues to this day, Wilson has given this country nearly five decades of great music. From his pioneering Sixties bands (The Pink Finks, Party Machine and Sons of the Vegetal Mother), to his national breakthrough with Daddy Cool, Ross Wilson's place in Australian music history was assured. However, it did not end there. After disbanding Daddy Cool and in an incredible threeyear run he formed the shortlived 'super group' Mighty Kong, reformed Daddy Cool, produced (amongst others) the megaselling Skyhook's debut album Living In The Seventies, started a record label (Oz Records) with Glenn Wheatley and formed Mondo Rock. This deluxe reissue of Primal Park adds the 1978 debut single 'The Fugitive Kind' along with seven further bonus tracks. Liner notes are by Ian McFarlane and include a recent interview with Ross Wilson. The CD was digitally remastered by Gil Matthews and Ross Wilson an interesting fact is that Matthews features on the last four of these bonus cuts, as he was Mondo Rock's drummer in the lineup post Primal Park. The last track, 'Perhaps, Perhaps' was written by Wilson and Stephen Cummings and would become a hit single for Cummings' band The Sports in 1980 (as 'Perhaps').
