Laughing Clowns – Sydney Trade Union Club Presents Laughing Clowns Flexi 7" (Rare / Used, NM)

Australian jazz-influenced post punk band who formed in Sydney in 1979 by Ed Kuepper after he'd left The Saints. Active through 'til 1984. Feat. a long list of important names in Australian music history, incl. a brief stint by The Necks' Chris Abrahms. Self-released (never released?) flexi 7" recorded in part at ABC studios and the Sydney Trade Union Club.

Near mint copy with original paper backing, generic plastic sleeve. Digging about the history on this release, we believe they were originally given away to a limited number of people on the band's tour for The Law Of Nature in 1983-84. The band would tour with The Birthday Party, among others, before Kuepper would go on to eventually join Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds on tours across Europe in 2009 and 2013.
