Bobby & Laurie - Hitch Hiker (1966)

Killer album.  Full stop (despite the goofy cover).  This Aussie band were unfairly ignored in the late 60's and have remained so ever since.  Why aren't the multitude talking about this with a full CD re-mastered release?  Damn unfair.  So, all we can settle for (eternally) is my scrubby LP conversion.  Better than nothing despite the sound of cooking bacon.  This is a classic - it still shines.

Check out Jump Back, an excellent compilation LP.

  1. Good Lord man! Thank you! Been looking for this for years! Aside from the first LP, best Aussie album ever? Had the Jump Back comp in the 80s, and can't believe no one knows these guys-- love the Easybeats of course, but cut for cut, this may be the better record (esp. side 1)!
