Description

THE UPSETS : Very Rare hard to find Classic Early Australian Punk band from Queensland. Original 1980 Release !
Side 1 : Back To Afganistan >>>> Still Poignant today !! Side 2 : Heartattack
This is the original 7" that i exchanged in 1981 with the DJ on 4222FM (a local Queensland radio station at the time) and hence this must the actual copy that got its first radio play anywhere in the world (not something i can confirm but highly likely) The Writing on the label is by the DJ and reads 4222 FM / Nov' 80 / and also a phone number that must have been the bands contact number at the time.
Never issued in picture sleeve ! this i received in a card cover , i have also put it in a white plain sleeve too for protection and storage.
Ive had this stored perfectly for nearly 30 years . .
