Radios Appear

Radios Appear

Reissue of this classic 1977 album from the Australian Punk band featuring Deniz Tek and Rob Younger. Record labels were eager to place Radio Birdman in the then-new context of late-'70s Punk - somewhat inaccurately considering the band's long hair and technical skill - so WEA picked up Radios Appear for distribution after it's initial mail-order release on the Trafalgar imprint. Then, legendary Sire boss Seymour Stein saw Radio Birdman while visiting Australia to sign the Saints, and resolved to re release Radios Appear internationally with a different track order and particular overdubs. This version is presented here, as heard by so many late-'70s youth before starting bands of their own and citing Radios Appear as an influence in interviews to come.
