DM3
GARAGE SALE COMPENDIUM
Sugarbush (LP)
Genre: Power pop
Dom Mariani has been one of Australia’s prime proponents of power pop for many years, and a dozen of his DM3-era rarities make up this excellent LP. Comprised of non-LP singles, B-sides, tunes recorded for tribute collections and the like, it’s uniformly excellent, whether Mariani and company are covering The Creation, Shoes, and CCR or doling out pristine, high-energy originals such as “Dial 04 Josephine,” “Hourglass” and “Little Town Crier.”
