A to Z: 100 Best Australian Albums so "C" is for...

This time I've picked out the Cockatoo or my favorite one the Red tailed Black Cockatoo for the above picture.

OK, on with the albums which there are seven in this post, I'll just write one line on each album or this really is going to take forever.

Cannot Buy My Soul by Kev Carmody/Various Artists
One of the greatest if not the best tribute albums ever made plus all the original songs too on disc two, his songs are like one masterstroke after another.


Cellulite Soul by Witch Hats
A totally wicked and amazing debut album from a few years ago that makes Wolfmother look like The Wiggles.


Charcoal Lane by Archie Roach
This was his unbelievable debut album, he was at the age of 34 at the time of the release which is such a shame that it had taken that long but thanks to Paul Kelly.


Circus Animals by Cold Chisel
My dad's favorite band of all-time which I listened to the most as a kid because he just was always playing them so after a very long time of not wanting to listen to them this one I find the easiest.


Coal by Devastations
This is their second album out of three albums, so far but have been dead quiet since 2007 so I think most people have totally forgotten about this band now. This a prefect classic from the mid-2000's.


Crossing Off The Miles by Chad's Tree
So maybe this should be under "K" for Kerosene which was the one and only great album but this is the reissue with all early recordings/demos, 7" singles/B-sides well, everything they recorded in the 1980's but only released last year.


Cruel, But Fair by Laughing Clowns
Yet another reissue in this list of mine, what Ed Kuepper did after he left The Saints. I think Laughing Clowns are so much better and this is everything they ever recorded too. They are my favorite band from the 80's.


Stay tuned for the letter "D" soon...
