Description


The Last Words — Malcolm Baxter (vocals), Andy Groome (guitar), Leigh Kendall (bass), John Gunn (drums) — played and recorded in both Australia (Sydney) and the United Kingdom (London) from 1977 to 1980. The band’s most successful song, “Animal World”, considered by many pundits to be a punk classic, was released by the band three times on three different labels and in two different countries. In Australia it was one of the first DIY punk releases; and the first punk single to be released locally on a major label by an unknown band that had never played live. In the UK it was the first Australian punk single to appear on a major punk label (Rough Trade), and reached number 8 on the Alternative UK Charts.
 
I will shortly be listing a stack of rare UK and US punk, new-wave, post-punk and psych 45s, fanzines and flyers all from my own collection.
