Original OZ 1st Self Titled Mini LP released in 1980 on Missing Link Records. Cat: MLB001.

Laughing Clowns are a post punk band who formed in Sydney in 1979. In five years, the band released: three LPs, two mini albums, and various singles and compilations, this was their first release. Laughing Clowns sound is free jazz, bluegrass and krautrock influenced. The band formed to accommodate Ed Kuepper's growing interest expanding the brass-driven sounds created on the Saints final album, Prehistoric Sounds and by adopting flattened fifth notes in a rock and roll setting while using a modern jazz styled band line-up. This five-piece incarnation of the Clowns featuring Dan-Wallace Crabbe (Crime & the City Solution) and was recorded at Richmond Recorders in Melbourne with engineer Tony Cohen. Released via Missing Link, their debut six track gained favorable reviews in the Australian independent music press after it hit the shelves in May 1980. A promotional video for the song "Holy Joe" from the record was also produced; a rare feat from an Australian independent band of the Countdown era.
