Toy Watches - Too Long 7''

This band hails from Ipswich (next to Brisbane). Very hard to ever find a copy of this single but historically speaking, it is important. I'd imagine that you have never heard anything by this shortlived band - and it would probably remain that way. This blogsite aims to rectify that. Something lost in time may have a chance to live on.

As you may see from the cover, it features Joh Bjelke-Peterson. A very controversial politician, premier of Queensland. The band would have been taking the piss and probably agreed with his nickname ('Hillbilly Politician'). Ah, those were the days. Punk rock in this state was very anti-Joh as the state was akin to being a police state. Corruption ruled.
