| Buried Country is about to be born again again, with the imminent release of a vinyl LP through a co-pro between Mississippi Records and Flippin’ Yeah Records, the former an amazing archival specialist coming out of Portland, Oregon, the latter the label run by Australia’s own Gympie Songster, Darren Hanlon. Darren has been a friend of Buried Country for a long time, and this album is really his baby, as he has coursed all over Australia in pursuit of producing it, making more friends and connections, as he is wont to do (pictured above with 'Salty', who he met in the Kimberley). The album will be released very soon, and it brings so much more to the table, featuring tracks never before re-/released and with lavish packaging including more rare photos, original artworks and extensive liner notes. The tracklisting is as follows (and the test-pressing sounds stunning): SIDE ONE 1/ BLACK ALLAN BARKER Take Me Back 2/ GALARRWUY YUNUPINGU Gurindji Blues 3/ WARUMPI BAND Jailanguru Pakarnu 4/ KANKAWA NIAGARA Yanany Baliba 5/ KOORIERS Sick of Being Treated Like a Low-Down Mangy Dog SIDE TWO 1/ JIMMY LITTLE Give the Coloured Lad a Chance 2/ BROWN BROTHERS Black and White Cat 3/ DOUGIE YOUNG Cut a Rug 4/ MAISIE KELLY My Home in the Valley 5/ COUNTRY OUTCASTS Streets of Old Fitzroy 6/ BOBBY McLEOD The Resurrection |
