Gaz, I've got the Mother Goose album with BAKED BEANS on it. Members of Serious Young Insects went on to form Boom Crash Opera. The Scientists, one of my fave bands of all time, are the catalyst for The Seattle sound. The Boys from Perth are one of the most under rated bands ever, got both their albums. Matt Finnish, Short Note album was sublime in '81. Very sad when Matt Moffitt passed away. Hey it was a massive pub scene back in the 70/mid 80s eh. I remember going out to see plenty of bands back then... how good were Jimmy and the Boys live... sensational. Ward 13 were another great band. Yes and I agree The Boys were really good but unfortunately disbanded a bit too soon maybe found costs were too much with the travel from Perth.... I have a feeling that the drummer went on to join The Baby Animals. Speaking of the Short Note album from Matt Finnish, I've still got it and actually saw a CD of it in JB Hifi for $10 the other week so I grabbed it and during one of my trips to Sydney.. threw it on and it's still as good as it ever was... it is such a well produced album and the sound is defo one of the, if not the best, I've heard from that era.... crystal clear.

GAZ, I BOUGHT "SEE VENICE AND DIE" BY WARD 13, though I'm guilty of not buying the album. Back in 1981 not only was money tight, there were so many great bands, and music to buy. Couldn't buy it all, plus somebody else would get your attention and you'd buy that.
I walked into The Annandale one lazy Tuesday night in the days when the stage was down P'matta Rd end, and there was a band playing in full flight with a hot chick on guitar and vocals. They were so good we stopped b4 getting to the bar in awe of their awesomeness. It was one of The Baby Animals 1st Sydney gigs.
