They Were Better Live (Audio CD),23 May, 1999
List price $25.49
Made every other live gig I've seen seem like a funeral! / 5
First saw these guys as opening act to U2 and BB King at the Sydney Entertainment Centre and was blown away. As soon as U2 finished, I raced over to the Petersham Inn gig (mentioned in the liner notes) to see these guys for the 2nd time that night and I have been a devoted follower ever since. Mick Thomas' voice - particularly on "Streets of Forbes" - is pure intensity and the band are right behind him. Too many highlights on this album to list, any self-respecting Aussie must buy this, but anyone who appreciates their rock mixed with a bit of dip of the lid to folk/country/story-telling and a dash of punk will get goosebumps over this.
Song "Easy Money"
It's difficult. It's very tough.
I said to the man who'd been sleeping rough
To sit within a fragrant breeze
All among the nodding trees
That hang heavy with the stuff
He threw his arms around my neck
He brushed the tear from my cheek
And held my soft white hand
He was an understanding man
He did not even barely hardly speak
Easy money
Rain it down on the wife and the kids
Rain it down on the house where we live
Rain until you got nothing left to give
And rain that ever-loving stuff down on me
All the things for which my heart yearns
Gives joy in diminishing returns
He kissed me on the mouth
His hands they headed south
And my cheek it burned
Money, man, it is a bitch
The poor, they spoil it for the rich
With my face pressed in the clover
I wondered when this would be over
And at home we are all so guilty-sad
Easy money
Pour it down the open drain
Pour it all through my veins
Pour it down, yeah, let it rain
And pour that ever-loving stuff down on me
Now, I'm sitting pretty down on the bank
Life shuffles past at a low interest rate
In the money-coloured meadows
And all the interesting shadows
They leap up, then dissipate
Easy money
Easy money
Easy money
Rain it down on the wife and the kids
Rain it down on the house where we live
Rain it down until you got nothing left to give
And rain that ever-loving stuff down on me
