Aussie lynch-pin Mark Seymour (Nick from Crowded House’s little brother) went though a number of bands before emerging in Hunters & Collectors. One lineup even included ABC journo Margot O'Neil on vocals, as ‘The Jetsonnes.’While their debut album ‘The Jaws Of Life’ enjoyed marginal radio play, it was ‘Human Frailty’ that ‘jettisonned’ them into the charts.
One of my all time favorites comes from the 1992 album ‘Cut.’ This single chronicles Napoleon's march into Russia, with Moscow representing the unobtainable. ‘Holy Grail’ made #20 on the Aussie music charts, and remains a strong radio staple to this day.
