The Chrysalids & Spiders and The Fly - Texas Chainsaw 7''

Brisbane pop from The Chrysalids in 1986 (on Tombstone Records).  This is actually a split 7'' with Spiders and The Fly but I know nothing about this band. Always enjoyed The Chrysalids though.

Danny Graham - Self Titled

I was drawn to this LP around 1982 as the cover looked a little bit punky.  It could've been one of those quirky post-punk pop gems that you turn up in the el-cheapo bin.  Slapped it on the turntable and was somewhat disappointed.  Danny churns out some sort of Aussie folk slash psych sound.  I later found out it was released in 1980 and is highly revalued by collectors (selling for big $$$).  Hmmm, wonder why.  Still can't answer that one - but here it is - you decide.

I'm too lazy to split the tracks so all you get here is Side 1 and Side 2.  Oh yeh, he earlier had a bit to do with Iva Davies of Flowers/Icehouse fame (in a band called The Afghans).
