SHARE: Coconut Rough (1984) Expanded Edition

Postby Dominik500 » Fri Jun 21, 2013 11:56 am

Hey everyone! This is my first share with my new record player. The sound is much better, I hope you guys approve...

Coconut Rough are a New Zealand band who put out one selftitled album in 1984. The album spawned 4 (technically 5) singles, but for some reason the album and the singles are impossible to track down. I finally got the missing b-side I needed to complete this share. They also have a live EP called "Whistle While You Work" and an EP for the song "Tango (It Takes Two)" which supposedly has unreleased tracks. If anyone has either of these to share, I'd love em! The singles take from the album were "Leisure Time" "Magic Hour" "As Good As It Gets" the aforementioned "Tango" and their biggest hit "Sierra Leone."

Here's the video for "Magic Hour" (1984)

Two of the singles had album tracks as b-sides (I don't know what "Tango" had) but "Sierra Leone" featured "Monkey Puzzle" on the flip which is one of my favorites, and "As Good As It Gets" b-side was "Balancing Act."

Enjoy! And please let me know if the sound is improved.

Thanks!
