This cover of I'M FREE by Australian rock band #MondoRock is so underrated and never played on the radio.

What more can you say other than it's a whole lot more soulful and has a lot more substance than most of Mondo Rock's formulaic catalogue?

Great sax solo as well. 🎷🎷

Wrote this blog about Aussie rock legend #RossWilson way back in November, 2010, about his then recently released album I COME IN PEACE.

Note :- the man himself responded to it with a comment.

#RossWilson was always very capable of pushing the lyrical boundaries to the point of being controversial and offensive to prudes 😄

#DaddyCool' s cover of BABY LET ME BANG YOUR BOX was Wilson's most provocative chant 😄, #MondoRock 's defining COME SAID THE BOY a close second.

Technics turntables with Red vinyl playing and red back lighting. Album cover of vinyl LP Mondo Rock Summer of 81 live at the Pier. Recorded at Frankston!

This is a fantastic early #80s live recording, produced with a great sounding mix. Hope to see Ross join us here soon too. Recorded at good old Frankston!

8 '80s Songs From Down Under That Could Have Been Popular Here Had We Heard More of Them There was a lot of wonderful music released Down Under in the ‘80s, and it’s hard to say why some of it didn’t break through. Many of the songs that were hits, both major and minor, could have actuall...

I'm a big fan of Aussie and Kiwi '80s music, so I compiled this list of tunes for American Songwriter that I thought could have hit bigger here.

PRIMITIVE LOVE RIGHTS is a most underrated Australian rock song of the late 1980s.

#MONDOROCK, led by Ross Wilson of #DaddyCool fame, never quite become a household name in Australia like #ColdChisel or #TheAngels, but they scored a few big hits, notably COME SAID THE BOY.

After #DaddyCool in the early 70s and a much longer tenure with #MondoRock from the late 70s until the late 80s #RossWilson finally decided to fly solo with the 1989 album DARK SIDE OF THE MAN.

The song BED OF NAILS isn't exactly a love ballad. Wilson was letting off steam 😄😄
