Finch - Thunderbird (1976)
Besides being one of Australia's finest hard rock obscurities, Finch also once employed former AC/DC bassist, Mark Evans. Finch recorded three albums before changing their name to Contraband. A single and an album later, they disappeared. This, their debut album, is the finest of the bunch. Excellent vocals and charging guitars punctuate this album, which is filled to the rim with hard rock goodness. There is a very slight progressive temperment to some of the material, but by and large, this is a hard rock album. Please pardon the low bitrate, as this is all I have at the moment. Sadly, Finch's output has never been remastered and pressed to disc. In the meantime, while we wait (don't hold your breath), check out this clean vinyl rip & see for yourself why collectors drool over Finch.128kpbs @ http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RUMV2YF0

Excellent record, one of the greatest mid 70s albums I heard...aussie hardrock rips supreme...
I'm trying to download this classic album, but am having no luck. Can someone please help me. Thanks.
Dang . . . this is a good one. The killer drumming and slight prog touches really bring this one alive. Why doesn't Aztec Music reissue this one?
Good news! The Australian re-isseue label Aztec, are planning to release the album on CD with bonus tracks!:

These guys do a really great job of Australian stuff from the 70's
Be sure to grab a copy of Thunderbird when it comes out!
