D28: The Ides Of March

James Reyne, Fall Of Rome

I want no part of this despair
I want no ugly mornings
I want no opiated fear
I want no clouded callings
All alone
Alone

Today in music: Reckless (Don't Be So) by Australian Crawl from the 1986 album The Final Wave. Released 40 years ago, it was the band’s second live album and last release

A real obscurity from Aussie rocker #JamesReyne. The song WALKING IN THE DREAMTIME was originally released as a B-side on vinyl for his 1989 single HOUSE OF CARDS, and resurfaced a few years later as a "feature song" on his album THE WHIFF OF BEDLAM.

Kind of a funky rocker.

#AustralianCrawl frontman #JamesReyne, after recording a few solo albums after leaving the band in the mid 80s, in '92 former an unwieldy "supergroup" with fellow Aussie rocker #DarylBraithwaite called COMPANY OF STRANGERS.

A lively energetic song from this union is this one.

I'm a big fan of Aussie and Kiwi '80s music, so I compiled this list of tunes for American Songwriter that I thought could have hit bigger here.

This song is quite unlike any other song of #JamesReyne, at least all the ones I have ever heard.

It is the B-side to his 1991 song SLAVE. Unlike that dense and lush classic rock song OUTBACK WOMAN is a cruisey, acoustic Delta blues like ditty, pisstakey and it grooves man. 😄

What I regard as the best song #JamesReyne ever recorded, both as a solo artist and with his band AUSTRALIAN CRAWL.

Released in 1991, SLAVE wasn't only one of Reyne's best & "clearest" vocals, but it benefited from lush production from Bryan Adams' "ex" producer JIM VALLANCE.

James Reyne turned back the decades, playing an entire, mostly loud-rock set of Aussie Crawl songs to the happy, singalong crowd. Highlights included ‘Hoochie Gucci Fiorucci Mama’, ‘White Limbo’ and a stripped-back reggae version of ‘The Boys Light Up’ (with Josh Owen). #JamesReyne #AustralianCrawl
