3rd studio album by Australian rock band Australian Crawl follows one year after Sirocco, which had been nominated best Australian album of '81 at the Countdown Awards where lead vocalist of the band James Reyne won the prize as Most Popular Male Performer - as he also did in '82.
I heard the song (Not So) Happy Song for Problem Children on the national radio and simply had to check out the band. I found the album at a local record store around '83. I have always found that it's their very best song but in general, this album has a high standard and it contains a number of fine compositions. It is however, also the best album by Australian Crawl.
