I first saw this on Rage, decades ago and was totally in awe of the song, the playing (full marks to Bart Willoughby - top effort on the drums) and in particular the phenomenal guitar. I never forgot it and spent years trying to find this on RUclips. To my great relief, I found it and it's still as amazing now as it was all those years ago. I'm bewildered the guitar solo and Selwyn Burns isn't more widely known beyond those who are fans of Coloured Stone. If he is, more widely known that's good as he deserves wider recognition (if he wanted it). One of the great Oz songs for me.
Hard to believe this song is over 30 years old..... It blew me away when I first heard it on Rock Arena and still rates in my top 5 favourite tunes..... Another Aussie "shoulda been a Number 1 but radio didn't get behind it" track...
making that 50w peavy practice amp sing and beg for mercy all at the same time. i havent seen this since the 80s but i still remember the solos...bass riff..... well all in all a complete song
Everyone's on top of their game in this song, brotha Bunna excellent vocals and that Drumming style is of the hook, and killer notes on the lead guitar as well.
Love these guys... I've still got my old LP I bought in Perth back in the 80's. Still thrash it now & then too... I saw then somewhere live once too, but the details are pretty hazy now :D
I signed Selwyn up as a member of our video shop in Tennant Creek in the mid 80's..lol..Coloured Stone were one tight rock n' roll band..they did a great cover of the old Rolling Stone tune..''Out of time''..they used to play in a hall in the middle of the main st of TC next to our shop..i used to stand outside between customers to have a listen to them
these guys with this song deserves more recognition
Amen 🙏 Yes Definitely They Do 💯
You're not wrong Otty
Indeed they do.
Grown up listening to this band. The young bloke making it piss on the guitar where he is. What talent and give Angus Young a run fir his money
In 1986 I was watching beatbox on the abc on a cold Saturday afternoon and this song came on, the rest is history regards from Darwin Australia.
In my case, I was lying in bed half awake and they were on JJJs band of the week spot. Some songs you just remember the first time you heard them.
Beat beat beat box. Tops matey.
One of my favourite songs of the '80's.
One of the most under rated guitar solos of the '80's.
Ice ice baby
Ice ice baby vanilla ice
I agree. That lead guitarist is carving that solo. Brilliant playing from him and the whole band

This band always made me feel happy, fantastic beat that had my feet tappn & I reckon the music was pure magic... thankyou Coloured Stone.

Three ripper guitar solos thrown into 4 minutes 🤘

Damn!! who's the guitarist??
It may be Bunna Lawrie's nephew Bruce Mundy. Sure wish I could verify it and wonder what happened to him as he smokes the guitar
Nupsy Macca selwyn burns on electric guitar.
I signed Selwyn up as a member of our video shop in Tennant Creek in the mid 80's..lol..Coloured Stone were one tight rock n' roll band..they did a great cover of the old Rolling Stone tune..''Out of time''..they used to play in a hall in the middle of the main st of TC next to our shop..i used to stand outside between customers to have a listen to them
