Jeff Duff (or Geoff Duff as the spelling on this recording says) is a Theatrical singer from Melbourne who fronted numerous bands, most notably Kush before moving to Britain for ten years in 1978. There he recorded for the Beggars Banquet label, and had some success with his single, Give Me Back My Brain, from the album Duffo, recorded with the participation of guitarist Peter Green. This single recorded for Mushroom Records in 1977 reached #39 in Melbourne. The A-side a cover of the 1965 U.S. hit by The Knight Brothers was penned by James Leon Diggs and the B side penned by Geoff. Here to download is that single out of '77 with its B-side "Temptation's 'Bout To Get Me" b/w “Where Will I Be? (Tomorrow)" (K-6764)
G Duff has released both Kush Albums on CD with loads of extra's, Live stuff, b-sides, etc. Got them and love them. Still looking for some Duff-cd's though. One day. John
Enjoy these rare Australian classics and not so classics converted from vinyl to Mp3. Any copyright owner who does not wish to be included in this blog, please contact me and I will remove the posting immediately. What I would like this blog to accomplish is to get Australian music out there that will probably never make it to CD. I hope that these samples will take you on a trip down memory lane, or introduce this great music to people who may have never heard it before.
WE CREATED THIS MUSIC BLOG IN HOPE TO PROMOTE THOSE AUSSIE TRACKS THAT WERE EVENTUALLY VAULTED BY THE MAJOR RECORD COMPANIES. MOST OF THESE TRACKS ARE ONLY COLLECTING COBWEBS AND WILL NEVER BE RELEASED ON CD. MAYBE AFTER PEOPLE HEAR THE TRACKS THAT I PUT ON THIS BLOG, WITH EMAILS TO THE RECORD COMPANIES WE CAN TWIST THEIR ARM TO RELEASE THEM ON CD. TO MY KNOWLEDGE THE TRACKS THAT I'M POSTING HAVE NEVER BEEN PUT ON CD. REMINDER: IF YOU ARE THE COPYRIGHT OWNER OF ANY OF THESE RECORDING AND DO NOT WISH TO HAVE THEM INCLUDED ON THIS BLOG, PLEASE CONTACT ME AND I WILL REMOVE THEM IMMEDIATELY. ALL VISITORS: ENJOY!
