Pseudo Echo

Pseudo Echo have joined in the retromania and have a new album out. Will I listen to it? Probably not. I only ever had that first LP Autumnal Park taped off someone. There weren't that many memorable tracks really. I wonder if it's a return to their more electronic/new romantic days or their later more rockified funk sound that gave them their transglobal hit, their cover version of, Funky Town?


I always liked this tune Don't Go from 1985. Had the 7" I do believe. Still sounds alright I reckon. They were a bit more talented and original than say I dunno Geisha. I remember seeing one them at Melbourne's Queen Vic Market in like 86 and thinking that was something but also thinking he's just a guy in the street like the rest of us.


Liked the goth/post punk type guitar in this one from 84 and those keyboards ofcourse. Funny 80s videos eh?

    the first live performance i ever experienced was pseudo echo at the bridge hotel(buronga)haha. there were floor fans at the front of the stage for full hairblowing effect to add to the pomp and garish lighting. the attraction for me was the thrill of entering an adult venue when underage and getting pissed with your mates. those were the days eh tim? i think they were touring on the strength of the funky town single at the time. to be fair, the ramones used the same fan setup when i saw them at the big day out in melbourne, 1993?...
