This album cover kind of reminds me of where I come from, in the the picture is the town of Mandurah in 1962. If the cover was Esperance in 1974 it would cut a bit closer to the bone since my home town is Kalgoorlie, but Mandurah is close enough.The video clip for Wide Open Road also makes me a bit homesick because it shows the Gin Gin general store, I played a game of football not far from there as a teenager.I read in the Option magazine once about Australian music having that feel of isolation to it. I think Wide Open Road is that sort of song, I don't think there are too many other places in the world like Western Australia where there can be 20 people living in an area the size of the United Kingdom. Pity the video is not on YouTube, I would love to breach copyright by linking to it.
