Thank you Mr Hamilton and of course his very expensive band ‘The Money’.

FRIDAY Sept 21st :THE PUTBACKS are coming up the stairs to Funk up the house .. Big time ! If you like your Funk super heavy with an authentic feel and a side of deep fried big bottom then you will love The Putbacks . They have established themselves as one of the premier funk outfits in Australia. The dance floor will be cleared , mopped and polished and the lights will be low . We’re getting our boogie on and off , cant wait . So get the Funk up the stairway to heaven and lets DANCE !!     Here’s what Rex at Northside Records said about the Putbacks : ”Diamond Cutter is fresh — it’s cheesy enough to make white people dance but it’s not cheesy at all… it’s got the same kinda swinging feel as Tighten Up or Razor Blade, but still grooves hard like a JB/Pee Wee Ellis 45. Party starter! CAUTION: May induce white man’s overbite!” . Here is Diamond Cutter ! Have a listen HERE The Putbacks are Mick Meagher – bass ,Tom Martin – guitar ,Rory McDougall – Drums ,Simon Mavin – Keys ,Justin Marshall – Percussion
