    OH man, the Radios, from my youth, late 70s early 80s - this band - and many others ruled the Oz Rock scene. Thank you so much for giving them some love.

      So now you know? Birdman greatest Oz band ever! Began performing at Sydney venues in 1974. Seminal Radios Appear released 1976. Described their sound as high energy rock & roll. Guitarists originally from US. Chris Masuak from Klondike and Denis Tek a Detroit native, which probably explains their obvious Stooges/MC5 influences? Tek even plays an Epiphone Crestwood previously
      owned by Wayne Kramer.

    The Saints (Brisbane) & Radio Birdman (Sydney) appeared around the same time, 1973-74 some 1000 klm's apart. They play great fast rock'n'roll. Neither band regard themselves as 'punk' but were the first bands in our country who were the trail blazers of DYI. Had to book their own concert venues and pressed their first singles and EP's themselves. Both their first three albums are a must - The Saints - (I'm) Stranded '77; Eternally Yours '78 and Prehistoric Sounds '78. Radio Birdman - Radios Appear (dark cover) '77; Radios Appear (white cover, Overseas Version) '78 and Living Eyes (recorded in 1978 in Wales but not released until 1981 after the band had already broken up). Chris Bailey, the lead singer from The Saints was once asked 'what was the best thing about going to Sydney (back in the day ie 1977), his answer ''meeting Radio Birdman''. The two bands shared a concert together at the Paddington Town Hall on the 3 April 1977. There is live footage of this on youtube.
    Love both bands. Their stories are fantastic and similar. All their music is GREAT. ALL. Both go off.
    Check out Birdman's lead guitarist and main song writer Deniz Tek who is from Ann Arbor, Michigan. He came out to complete his medical studies in the early 1970's. His story alone is of a genius who thankfully shared that genius with the world. He's a trauma specialist, fronts one of the greatest bands ever, did his military service as a flight surgeon in the US Navy (he's a joint citizen), flew F-4 Phantom's and his callsign was ''Iceman''. Rumour is that that character in the movie Top Gun is based a little on Deniz. Check out the song ''Aloha Steve & Dano'' (the song and part of the riff are from the TV show Hawaii 5-0).

    Fuck yeah this is cool. Birdman are one of my fave bands, the records are fantastic and even now with them all pushing 70, when they play live they play really fucking hard. I last saw them play live in 2018 and they just destroyed with how hard they played and how good they still sound. Deniz Tek is one of my all time fave guitarists and one of the coolest dudes who's ever walked the Earth, a guitar shredder who became an ER doctor who became a Navy surgeon and then a fucking fighter pilot and back to rock'n'roll.
    As a suggestion, check out their ARIA Hall Of Fame induction video, where they play to a room of mostly stuffy recording industry executives and decide fuck it and just kill it live anyway, the live version of New Race from that night is phenomenal.

    That was a great response! RB is truly one of the best of Aussie history. Their US tour in 2007 was EPIC!! Also, check out New Race "The First and The Last" -- it's a live record with overdubs that the core of RB did with Ron Ashton, of the Stooges, and John Densmore, the drummer of the Doors. The album is on YT, and you also likely will enjoy The New Christs, which is Rob Younger, the RB lead singer with other musicians when RB isn't active. RB guitarist Deniz Tek is an American, and became a fighter pilot (the character of Ice Man was based on him, in Top Gun) and an emergency room surgeon, in addition to continuing to record great rock with RB and other projects! Thanks for doing this video! :) Now, check out "DUMB WAITERS" (the full version, which is 5:06 minutes, not the cut version of their official video here on YT) by THE PSYCHEDELIC FURS!!

    I'm a lucky Aussie who is going with a mate to see them live on their last tour, in Brisbane June 2024. I've seen them before and they deliver 100%. This is a band with the guts to play how they wanted to play. The footage you saw was probably 1976-77. They were pre-punk and they were not liked by the mainstream. But they liked The Stooges, etc, and helped form the superstructure for future punk/hard rock bands. I'm glad you enjoyed the song. Their first 2 albums are good.

    They just played their 50th year reunion gig in Sydney, they were still amazing. Radio Birdman and The Saints were in you eyes the 2 best Australian bands in the mid to late '70s.
    If you haven't done The Saints yet, do yourself a favour and listen to their songs "Stranded", and apparently one of Kurt Cobains favourite songs " Know your product ".
