Dogs In Space Soundtrack LP 1986 Australian Iggy Pop Eno Michael Hutchence
Original Australian pressing on Chase Records in white “censored” sleeve and illustrated inner sleeve.
Dogs in Space is a 1986 Australian film set in Melbourne's Little band scene in 1978. It was directed by Richard Lowenstein and starred Michael Hutchence as Sam, the drug-addled frontman of the fictitious band from which the film takes its name.
The soundtrack album was released on Chase Records in February 1987 (CLPX14), featuring several tracks from reformed "little bands" and other contemporary tracks of the time.
The album came in two versions: a censored version in a white sleeve with the band name "Thrush & the C*nts" bowdlerised to "Thrush and the C**ts" (as I had to for ebay!) and possibly-offensive song vocal tracks removed, and an "R"-rated version in a black sleeve with all band names in full, movie dialogue between the songs and all vocal tracks in full. The album's liner notes were written by Clinton Walker.
Chase Records went out of business soon after and, despite much effort, the record has never been reissued and has remained unavailable since. It is now a collector's item, commanding high prices. It was only available on LP and cassette and was issued on CD - at least the censored version appeared on discount bins in shopping malls in Lisbon, Portugal, somewhere around 1996-1997.
The Hutchence tracks were his second official solo recordings, after releasing a single in 1982 titled "Speed Kills" from the soundtrack to the film "Freedom," and his first with Ollie Olsen. They would later collaborate on the Max Q recordings.
