G'day Biggus Maccus,
THE CURRENCY started recording an album around about last July, I think it was, don't quote me. It was preceded by a three track gig-issued disc. I hear the album is due out "very soon". They're having a SINGLE launch in Melbourne soon so hopefully it'll be out pretty soon, I'm looking forward to it.
Not sure what the songs are but they'll be worth the wait, especially 'ANCHOR AND CROWN' and 'TENPENNY BIT'.
CATGUT MARY recorded an album's worth of stuff in October last year, at a really good home studio sort of deal. Some of it is a bit rushed, some of it is pretty good, three of them have been floating around for quite a while. I left the band not long after we finished it but, last I heard - and we're talking about nine months here - the baby will be:
Jacky Butler (me) Melbourne Tram Song (yup, me) Yard Rat Shanty (") Like A Shag On A Rock (Warren 'The Admiral' Fraser) Ryebuck Shearer (Trad) Leaving of Liverpool (") Paddy's Lantern (moi) Joe Killed Seven Men (et moi) Fortitude Deliver Us (et moi) Chinatown Bound (") Crown Sergeant Kelly (")
Mate, that seems like thirty years ago. Seems at least as distance as ....... the Bay of Pigs.
Cheers,
Will ;D

No idea, Brother, none whatsoever. BUT, I reckon if you MySpace them, one of the more keyboard savvy members will let you know.
And tell 'em that Will says 'allo.
They might be doing a whole new thing but I wouldn't think so. Before I took my leave and recorded with them, that one was slated to be called 'Bourbon And Black Porter'. That's my 'farewell tae whisky' song, as it were.
So yeah, I'd be vaguely interested to know if they're putting it out meself.
Veritas Vincit,
Will ;D
