Yeah, it deserves to slide down the list on a 50 foot anaconda! Obviously some kind of quantity turned up.
Maybe from the boxes that the band members ditched, as they were fed up with consigning them to record bars across Brisbane in January 1966.

I own #25, which I bought from soundog III at the WFMU Record Fair a few years back.
#10 and #12 are major wants of mine.

When it comes to Australian 45s, I lack nought of the top 500. Or anything significant to my knowledge. But as I said, it's 10 years since I more or less closed the book on actively seeking them out, and in that time it is probable that others may have come to light.
Another factoid : I actually had 2 almost complete Aussie 45 collections at one stage. I had 3 Atlantics "Come On", 4 Moods "Rum Drunk", 2 Elois (both mint), 2 Marksmen (and a 3rd at a later date) etc etc.. I traded many for US garage 45s, and gave many others away. My current collection is the pick of the copies I owned, condition-wise. Very many are mint.
"A Look At You"/"About You Girl" by The New Edition. Not to mention "Sunshine To Burn" by Long Grass, which I have loved since hearing on the CD "A Forest Of Gold Tops In The Land Of Oz" back in the late '90s.
When I was collecting Australian 45s, I put an infamous ad in the major newspapers of Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Adelaide, offering very good prices for a large range of the rarest 45s
Just bought Toni McCann's 'Saturday Date' of a friend - promo. Mark where would you rate this in the hardest to find/not-parting with it?
