I have always puzzled over that one myself.
Especially since they are at such great pains to point out how that is an album not just a collection of songs, but I think there is something very Aussie about it and much like Springsteen jollied up THe River by including the heads down rockers, I think that track lightens the feeling... for a while.
Wide Open Road and Stolen Property are also personal favourites. The latter especially I think just leaves ne speechless. Why The Triffids never made the REAL BIG TIME escapes me.
DO you know the story of Dave McComb?
I can give a version if you'd like but the truth is out there somewhere where people aren't telling...
