For fans of: MC5, ZZ Top, The Nerves

What they say: To be sure, Coloured Balls were not punk rock or even the kind of protopunk associated with the Stooges–MC5–New York Dolls triumvirate. But their supercharged, full-throttle boogie rock ’n’ roll knew no peers in the early 1970s, and when one lets a Balls long-player rip and unleashes the beast of searing guitar and jabbing rhythms — the parallels to punk rock are simply stunning. Similar to their spiritual brothers from across the pond, Coloured Balls took the vehicle of early rock ’n’ roll like Elvis Presley and Little Richard and remodeled it into a dragster. - PopMatters

What we say: A singular slice of sexy rock 'n roll from Australia circa 1973. Repressed from the original master tapes for that sweet analog sound. - Cedar
