The Radiators
Aussie Pub rock.... it was all so butch.
Your dad and I may be of the same vintage. In my teens I had the pleasure of their live performances a few times times and there was no denying their live energy and audience rapport. They even did a cover of Once Bitten Twice Shy when I caught them once. I was most impressed with that.
After the energy of their live performances the debut album was a considerable let down. So poor and lacking in the same live energy I think that that was the end of any delusions of Rock grandeur.
You say they are still playing. Good on em.
