Genre: Folk rock
Places I remember: Vinyl Countdown
Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: Wangaratta Wahine
Gear costume: Your Feets To Big (sic)
Active compensatory factors: (Almost) every country has one I guess: Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks, Bulldogs Allstar Goodtime Band and Captain Matchbox Whoopie Band all take that jug band base and go silly with it with varying degrees of success.

I took a punt on Captain Matchbox because they appeared at Sunbury, plus this is from 1974, and the album has a Kiwi flavoured title (wahine means woman in Te Reo). Maybe back in 1974 I would have found this hilarious. No longer.
It just tries too hard to be wacky, really. Maybe the Aussies lapped this up amid the reefer haze of Sunbury. Who knows.
Where do they all belong? Sometimes punts turn out fine. Sometimes they don't. Anyway, it's found a home in the folk rock section.
