Boys Next Door - Swinburne College, Melbourne 8-19-77

Boys Next Door were from Melbourne Australia and started off in 1976. Initially the band started as a four piece and were playing mostly cover songs with just a few originals in the classic 1977 style. In 1978 they released their first single with a cover of Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots Were Made For Walking" on the a-side and an original on the b-side with an additional song being released on the Lethal Weapon comp. LP. In late 1978 the band added an additional guitarist and the sound change. They released two LPs and a few more singles before changing their name the The Birthday Party. This recording is one of their earliest shows and it was recorded by 3SW student radio. Sound quality is very good. [from cassette tape]
