The Infidels - 3 In The Morning

3 IN THE MORNING (1994)

Something from cob, I had never heard this until today…. excellent album. I try to clear steer of comparisons in music…. but maybe a cross between The Triffids, The Go-Betweens and The Church, very spacious in texture and melodic….VERY AUSTRALIAN. Guests include Marty Willson-Piper from The Church and Amanda Brown from The Go-Betweens.

1. Caution Horses (3:57)

2. Cane Fields (4:25)

3. Precocious (3:09)

4. Sticks and Stones (4:02)

5. 3 in the Morning (4:31)

6. Weird Streets of Prayer (3:15)

7. Boys Don't Cry (3:56)

8. Days Of Splendour (4:24)

9. Vivien Leigh (3:29) (also appears on the Urban Folk Collective album Black Rabbit)
