The Someloves-It's My Time
Citadel records 45, 1986
The Someloves were essentially the duo of Dom Mariani (Formerly of the Stems, later of the DM3) and Darryl Mather. This, their debut disc, featured members of the Hoodoo Gurus and Eastern Dark, and was one of the very best of an onslaught of excellent loud pop 45s from Australia during the second half of the 80s, many of which said "Citadel" on the label (the magnificent Take Everything, Leave Nothing double LP is an excellent overview) and/or "Engineered by Alan Thorne" on the sleeve. The flip, "Don't Talk About Us," is easily as good as the nominal A-side. The Someloves made another couple of singles and a terrific LP, Something Or Other, but never again sounded quite so tough as they did here.

Site looks good and the Someloves is a good start! Little Hits looks like a winner for 2005!

One of my fave records! Quite an ambitious endeavor, but, as suggested by Steve M, a perfect start!
Will "Something Came Over Me" be next...oh, the possibilities!
Dammit Jon! Are you playing my records again!!?!?!?!?
