1975. I found this in a record store (remember those?) in Osborne Park, Perth, Western Australia: I'm not sure what I was doing there either! Band members at the time were: Tom Cussen: banjo, mandolin, P.J. Hernon: accordion, melodion, Benny O'Connor: drums and John Dooley on guitar and vocals. Additional musicians were: Eddie Maloney: flute, Paddy McMahon: fiddle and Carl Hession on piano. The track listing on the album cover is incorrect but rectified below and in the captions.
