[@deandownunder8091]

Still the most underrated oz band !

[@lindaellen808]

Saw them in Feb' '23, AU this year opening band act to Jon Stevens concerts.

[@esportswomen]

I concur.

[@craigbloxom8181]

I'm playing my first gig in 17 years tonight! Richard Lara from the Screaming Jets and myself have put together a reggae band called SKATTERHEAD playing all '80's Australian music reggae style. We do Spys, Jets, Oils, Chisel, Divinyls, INXS etc. all REGGAE! It's fun & funny. Toronto Hotel NSW Christmas Eve our first gig ever. Wish us luck! Merry Christmas everyone!

[@calvincoe4417]

you coming to Adelaide ??

[@neilwodcke6497]

This is the most amazing news.....need you back in perth as with others you guys were everything to a few of us the 50 odd times I saw you live (more than 5 times in one week as I remember)...your tales of gardening .....and the power find it hard to believe that 3 of you did all that but then I watched you time and time again....I have all your stuff and you all signed the lot when I managed the junction in midland and you played there on a back in Australia tour after years of madness in Brazil...Go to Work......geeez how many times did that go through my head....

[@craigbloxom8181]

@@neilwodcke6497 Hey Neil, I have great memories from WA and Perth. What fantastic times they were back in those days. Would love to come back some time, thanks for the kudos and best regards, Bloxy

[@sofhispalis]

These guys made the soundtrack of my life.Thank you! Blox, Mike and Cliff....

[@gavinkitchen1472]

You must be the same age as me, because I have the exact same feeling. Devasted about Mike's passing & the fact Craig's left the scene. Not only were the Spy's brilliant, their video's are so culturally important. They really are brilliant & ground breaking at where a lot of the Spy's Videos have been filmed. I don't even think they knew the importance of some of the heritage in their Videos, some of it no longer there. Such as the ship wreck of the North Coast of NSW, that many of us played around & even in, seen in "One of a Kind". The Finger Wharf, at Woolloomooloo. = Gone! Every where from Wentworth Park to the Blue Mountain's. Craig even had his on channel here, for awhile, where he posted all of their Videos. He also attached a lengthy description about each day's filming. Very important details about what they did that day, & location details. Sadly, I think its been taken down as i can't find it. Doubt Craig would of taken it down. Also Wiki pages for Craig & Mike don't exist any more. Don't know why I know Wiki takes stuff down, if they think their not famous enough, but really??? Surely that can't be it????

[@cryptosecuritytools]

Me and my buddies grew up in Sydney going to their shows and in our own band we even had a crack at half a dozen Spies songs. What an inspiration

[@brendanengland8385]

Almost every song and lyric is relevant still.. beautiful bass.. amazing band.. thanks heaps.

[@loufrost824]

So much more relevant.

[@scostam]

still best aussie band ever

[@shaynelenin999]

This is fuckin awesome. I was a huge fan of them when they were still Spy vs Spy and were opening for Midnight Oil gigs. One of the most uncredited bands in Aus rock history.

[@iandickson1940]

Without a Doubt

[@thespreeman401]

Seen them opening for Midnight Oil at Enmore theatre. Great night.

[@svensshed1564]

Just an incredible act. There is not another power guitar band in Oz that doesn’t owe their existence to these guys.

[@davepascoe6093]

Pounding Drums, a thumping bass line and driving lead guitar. Rock music doens't get any better than the Spys. Such a great live act to catch, and was so glad that I got to see the boys do their thing

[@davidcarlisle6560]

Curling smoke and twisted smiles....empty streets for miles and miles

[@Alex_Correa]

It was so good to listen to Spy while in my teens!!! Good times that won't come back!!! Prime music during the 80's!

[@cirovieira]

When I went to Sydney in 2016, I searched for any Spy's albuns in Downtown... But... I didn´t find none... . So sad that. This band is one of the most underrated of the world. Love it!

[@djrobotcitizen]

I recall buying several of their albums in the 1990s on Pitt St in Sydney's CBD, where there used to be 4 or so 2nd-hand record stores close to each other; and many more stores within 20 minutes walk. Sadly they nearly all closed down during the 2000s.

[@colinwoods5663]

[@sandgroperwookiee65]

Thanks a billion for this guys!.. Farken cool as😎 👍👍 Man they kicked ass musically & with substance, lyrically❤

The hardest working Aussie 3 piece band ever. Rock on Spy’s !

[@nesshane71]

Saw these guys at least 4 times in my youth, first when I was 15 at an outdoor gig in Queensland... they really are under rated.. brilliant songs

[@dennishatzidimitriou7899]

Brilliant band . Sung about the way it was

[@colinwoods5663]

the police had nothing on these guys beast raw aussie music ever

[@jonleslie4775]

Whilst luv the spy's , your comment in ludicrous, the police and maybe even the jam set the tone for great 3 piece bands in the late 70s. You can hear the influence

[@flavius401]

So perfect! Love this band!

[@darrenparkinson4576]

I love all the Brazillian comments.

Simply, thank you. R.I.P. Craig......😢

[@brucebird133]

That first 1 minute of the intro is still one of my all time fav's.. There wasn't really much to dislike in their music. Long missed... Would love to sit down with Blox and listen to him telling about his time in the band and how they came about some tunes etc over a few sherbets...

[@user-tg2mx4bx8i]

All over the world

[@mattwoolford6305]

SPY VS. SPY deserved much more. The first time I saw them they were backing Midnight Oil at Memorial Drive in Adelaide. To be back in those days. ...take me back now .

[@Dickusification]

I can't think of a bad song! That live performance of credit cards was incredible!

[@andrewgoldbergs4474]

A great band for the hard times of the 80s and 90s..big sound, big statements but no big pay days. Criminally underrated although had respect in several countries OS THE SOUND FROM THE SQUATS!

[@tiagofreitas66]

They made a huge success in Brazil...

[@mondop5270]

I remember the surf crowd lovin these guys... heard em thru buying a tape at a music stire in 1988 and taking a chance 😂 , diffrent times, no way to listen first back in my little town ( even in the cities only some stores early days would have opps to listen to music first). Think it was xenaphobia- but by 94 i had all the albums on offer- good times👍. Its so easy to hear and even the most obscure of bands these days but in the 80s etc it was only by liking a cover of an album or hearing word of a good band/ song that would allow finds. We only had ABC tv, a top 40 radio station and one music shop. Nostalgic but prefer what opps the kids have now days

[@emanuelmifsud6754]

Thank you Laneway Music .Amazing sound. They were on Blah Blah Blah on the ABC tv, mid 80s, Andrew Denton tried to take the piss out of Craig by jumping in front of him and miming him. You could see Craig tells Andrew to FO. I have it on VHS. They were just incredible. They played at Penrith Leagues (free entry) in 2007 only 40 people in the audience, their drummer was the lead singer..

[@Lanewaymusic]

Any chance you could transfer or Lon is the vhs Craig would be stoked to see it

[@emanuelmifsud6754]

.I have a great collection of tapes. I regularly taped stuff, 400 VHS tapes . I would need to find it. Let me see if I can locate first, I know I have it. I may be able to copy it directly off a TV and made send it to you as a file on the mobile phone.

[@Lanewaymusic]

Needs to be highest quality possible as vhs is bad from the start so don’t go to to much trouble

[@emanuelmifsud6754]

After they finished the song, Andrew comes up to Craig. Craig grabs Andrew in a headlock and tells him he would thump him one. That was just a gem. We love Craig for that. That Andrew was such a goose. Let me try to find it. I will copy it for youse.
