THE SPORTS - Who Listens To The Radio 7'' 1979

Not really Punk stuff but the following combo has brought a lot to vinyl in its five-year life, and this very successfully. The Sports were from Melbourne and performed, recorded between 1976 and 1981. Mainstay members were Stephen on lead vocals and Robert (bass), with long-term members such as Paul (drums) and Andrew (lead guitar) and Martin (guitar). Their style was similar to both 1970s British pub rock bands and British new wave. The original single was released on Mushroom in October 1978 and shortly thereafter reworked and re-recorded and as new lead 7Inch from the band's second album, Don't Throw Stones (1979), again released with another flip. Two simple but well crafted pop songs.
