about

I'd just graduated from Hellyer College and was about to scoot off to Canberra to study writing. I recorded the original version of this album (tracks 1 - 3, 7, 9, 11 & 13). The rest are home recordings from the era which I've since fished out and wished upon a star.

I've set up beds in a musical sharehouse for all the expression, bewilderment and craziness of the time for the sake of continuity and personal entertainment. Not everything from the original album was cutting it - but lost classics such as 'Cows & i' speak to me in droves (and who doesn't want to hear the two parts of 'Community Scooter' reunited?)

released April 22, 2022

Recorded February-March 1999 in Marcus Wynwood’s bedroom, Penguin, TAS. All songs by Justin Heazlewood except 'I got Rhythm' words from the original broadway version and 'Song for Erin' which is based on Frank Mills from Hair. Produced by Marcus Wynwood, who plays slide on 'Dodge' and all percussion / keyboard merriment.
'I got Rhythm' features Emma-Louise Cukier on vocals.
Cover design: Justin Heazlewood. (Based on a record cover I cut up at Nan and Pop’s).

Dedicated to Ioannis Vovos.

Brought to you by Sony Walkmans, Washburn guitars & Windows 95.

ORIGINAL LINER NOTES:
When growing up Phonze chooses to stay with the Heazlewood family. Phonze would like to thank year 12 for inspiring this album. Oh, you want names? Three cheers to 'The Gang™' you know who you are! Brad Harbeck for incomparable enthusiasm. The Walker family for supplying Birthmark income of bottle tops and fake nails! Lix. Jaclyn Holness for putting songs on repeat. Jake maaaate! Steve Loring for giving a guy a chance! Burkey for helping out with Vee - Dub, what started it all. Community Scooter (who didn't turn up for band practice this week?) and God for giving me the power.
