THE BONDI CIGARS ARE A ROCK GROUP HEAVILY STEEPED IN ELECTRIC BLUES FORMED IN SYDNEY IN 1989 BY SHANE PACEY, ALAN BRITTON, LES KARSKI AND ACE FOLLINGTON. OVER TIME VARIOUS MEMBERS HAVE COME AND GONE WITH PACEY AND BRITTON ONLY REMAINING FROM THE ORIGINAL LINE-UP.

WHEN THE BONDI CIGARS WERE FIRST GIGGING AROUND SYDNEY THEY MOVED IN A BLUES/R&B CIRCUIT WHICH, WHILE ROBUST ENOUGH SINCE THE '60S, HAD BEEN SPARKED INTO NEW LIFE BY THE 'BLUES REVIVAL' OF THE MID-1980s SPEARHEADED BY ROBERT CRAY, JOE LOUIS WALKER, STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN AND SIMILAR CRUSADERS. AND WHILE MANY OF THE SYDNEY BANDS FROM THAT ERA HAVE VANISHED, BECOME HISTORICAL FOOTNOTES OR UNDERGONE MAJOR CHANGES, THE BONDI CIGARS HAVE BATTLED ON TO BECOME A LEADING FORCE IN AUSTRALIAN R&B AND ARE STILL PERFORMING TO PACKED HOUSES TODAY. THE LINE-UP FEATURED ON THIS 2003 RELEASE (THEIR SIXTH) ARE PACEY, BRITTON ALONG WITH FRANK CORBY AND EBEN HALE. WHICH IS STILL THE CURRENT LINE-UP. GREAT MODERN R&B *****

TRACK LISTING: Tell Me What I Need To Know / Some Other Man / Raging Thirst / Everybody Do The Second Line / I've Been Trying / I Won't Lay Down With The Devil / The Edge Of The Dirty River / Talking Tombstone / You Soon Will Be / She Shakes Me To The Bone / More Light Than I Can Stand / Junkie For The Past.
