Recently reissued with three bonus tracks and the original Australian cover art: The Hoodoo Gurus' debut Stoneage Romeos (not Stoneage Romeo, as emusic has it listed). The leadoff track "(Let's All) Turn On" has to be one of the best album starters ever. I once made a mix tape consisting of that song followed by all the songs mentioned in the lyrics.

... if you don't like the Hoodoo Gurus, I suspect you don't like rock & roll very much.

What a great mix tape. Can I get a copy (on cassette of course)?
Sure, if I can find the original. I didn't think cassettes were still relevant in this day and age.
But a CD, or worse, MP3 files, would be anachronistic!
