Second pressing now in stock. 100 copies on black vinyl.

Real McCoy Wrong Sinatra is the third album by Sydney band Smudge and is now available on vinyl for the first time.

Tom Morgan, Alison Galloway, Adam Yee were joined by Pete Kelly (ex-Disneyfist, Decoder Ring) on second guitar and the relaxed atmosphere of recording in a seaside shack gives this inner-city band an extra boost. Special guests are Pete Batt on keyboards and David Orwell on pedal steel.

Recorded in 1998 by Tony Dupe on an eight-track in Gerroa on the NSW South Coast and then mixed by Pete Jones at Charing Cross Studio, it is – in label owner Nic’s opinion – the best sounding Smudge album.

Mastered from the original tapes by William Bowden, September 2020.
