This album is much too important and earth-shatteringly great to remain out of print. This 1973 LP should need no introduction. Just in case it does, it's simply one of the finest albums to ever come out of Australia. Period. COLOURED BALLS are the godfathers of Aussie punk, hard rock, psychedelic boogie, etc. They played too many different styles to be just any one thing. Lobby, Bobsie, Trevor, and Janis created something very special with this album and it sounds as fresh and vital as the day it was originally released.
All-analog pressing using the original 1973 master tapes from start to finish for superior sound quality. Mastered by Lobby's close friend and former bandmate, Gil Matthews (Billy Thorpe & The Aztecs).
Includes an 11" x 22" poster! This poster is a slightly different design than our previous pressing from 2023 and is also larger. Graphic restoration by Doran Shelley.
