Blox posted on his youtube site
http://www.youtube.com/user/hotziggettypancakes that he has the Spies vids
all for download via one of the torrent engines. This is great as I have
been after a copy of the Spy Files videos for ever. I still check eBay
regularly hoping to snag one. I don't think I've even seen the Clarity of
Mind clip - and we covered this in the band and were all over it. Check
Cliffy out getting that snare hand nice and high like Rob. The site also has
albums and some earlier live stuff and demos if you're hard core.

there doesn't seem to be too many seeding the videos, but I will leave my
download online and can probably cut dvd's too if needed.

Put me down as a big S v S fan too....
Was only listening to Xenophobia yesterday as
a matter of fact....
AO Mod TV Vers is a cracker of an album...... and
would be great to see a doco. on it...... but the chances are slim

Would have been good that one was done for Spy v Spy AO Mod TV Vers album.
You refer to Silverchair being the most over rated oz band, well, I think
the spies were the most under rated, unmarketed and under appreciated oz
band of their time. They deserved more than what they got and I can still
listen to their stuff as much as the oils and other bands mentioned in this
thread.

Earlier this year the series aired episodes on The Triffids' Born
Sandy Devotional, The Saints' I'm Stranded, Crowded House Woodface,
and yes, some god-awful silverchair rekurd (minus any mention of
mogine - i'm assuming that's the reason this most over-rated of
australian groups ever gets a mention here). In the latest
installments we saw The Go-Betweens 16 Lovers Lane, Nick Cave and The
Bad Seeds' Murder Ballads and Hunters' Human Frailty. IMO, with the
exception of SC, this was fairly well put together series, though
certainly a doco on 10-1 would be a welcome addition (along with The
Church Starfish, Radio Birdman Radios Appear, Skyhooks Living in the
70s, Hoodoo Gurus Stoneage Romeos etc).
I found an earlier comment about Mushroom's involvement maybe
precluding any featuring of the Oils interesting. Both Mushroom's
Gudinski and aussie music uber-jurno Toby Cresswell were instrumental
in the series. If not snubbed by Mushroom, I wonder whether the Oils
very unpopular (within the local industry) anti-establishment stance
in their earlry years has done their dash?

Workers,
SBS have a new series of Great Aus Albums. Tonights was Human
Frailty by Hunters and Collectors.
For the ladies that's the one with Throw Your Arms Around Me.
Doubt we will see the Oils on it as it appears to be a
Mushroom co-production.
But I hope I am wrong.
Would have to be 10 > 1 if it is
I saw a piece a while ago about this series, and it listed all the
albums
they will be covering (six episodes all up I think it was).
Sadly, no Oils. And before anyone asks, no I can't remember what
else was
on it. There was one Silverchair album I think, other than that
nothing
that interested me.
