Mental As Anything - You're So Strong (Extended Version)

[@darrinhyde6553]

I know I'm sounding like a know all music nerd but wasn't this a hit in 1985 (although it didn't appear on a hit compilation of it's day). Also Apocalypso appeared on Heaps Of Hits 85 rather than Choose 1985. Just sayin'... LOL

Definitely 1984, was also released OS in 85, 86 & 87 in various Countries. Just checked, yes Apocalypso was Heaps Of Hits, don’t own that compilation unfortunately so it’s a big guessing game for songs not released on various Oz comps, I’ll change that one cheers 👍

@@australian12extendedmixes53 The Fundamental has a year stamp of 1984 but wasn't issued in Australia till early 85 which is why all those hits from that album charted in 85. I assume the album was completed during the latter half of 84 possibly for a Xmas release but held back till the following year. Ah... who cares? Great album and appreciate you uploading the Mentals 12" mixes to the channel.

@@darrinhyde6553 cheers, trying to get as many of the great Aussie 12” mixes up as possible and hopefully quite a few hard to get ones, going off Discogs the 7” Oz release of YSS was issued in ‘84, which is pretty much what I’m going off, unless I find various charts which I have at times.
