Otherwise known as ‘The Tin Lids’. They had a very minor hit with a cover of ‘Walk The Dinosaur’ (Was, Not Was).

Up at Nelson Bay for a night

2RE Taree played these gems on the way up

True Blue - Madonna (an overlooked Madonna classic)
Have You Ever Seen The Rain - Creedence Clearwater Revival

As a side note, they also played Wolfmother’s “Joker And The Thief” which must have been a bit jarring for those John Laws’s tragics.

Some good ones today and tonight

Deeper Water - Deadstar (on 2NSB 99.3 Chatswood)

Wild Horses - Gino Vanelli (on 105.3 NEW FM)

Slave - James Reyne (on Triple M Homegrown just after 10pm).

Obseesion - Animotion (on 100.3 2MCR Campbelltown).

Now this next one isn’t necessarily a great song, but I have not heard it on the radio since 1987 hence the rarity so I just had to post this somewhere!

Male Stripper - Man 2 Man Meets Man Parrish (also on 2MCR).

This came out in 1991 (off Woodface) and whenever I went to a birthday party as a little kid I always said ‘Can I have another piece of chocolate cake?’ (please).

I always found it amusing that they were singing about chocolate cake.

It’s worth singing for!

Whilst i do like it, i don’t eat much of it.

I remember the DJ at Sun FM Shepparton saying “slicing up another piece of Chocolate Cake, that was Crowded House!”
