John B of NSW has very kindly provided us with his rip of this album. Many thanks John - I had been wondering when I would be able to access this one.
This was one of the early Larrikin releases - LRP 9 in 1977. It was later re-released by the ABC on vinyl and it is one of the re-released LP that John has ripped.
The performers on this album were Warren Fahey, Liora "Lalita" Claff, Tony Suttor, Ned Alexander, Paddy McLaughlan and Jack Fallis with alternating vocal performers as specified on the rear of the LP slip (graphics included in the download).
It's an enjoyable album featuring music, as sub-titled, "from the Australian Railway Tradition".

Thanks for this one; a far better rip than the one I had, which made Tony Suttor's voice sound like Leonard Cohen.
ReplyDeletei think it was an ABC release reissued by Larrikin...not the other way around.
