You catch a bus at dawn, by a submerged island you hear distant voices, you marvel at how mundane a supposedly exotic place can be, and how exotic a functional entity needs to be. You catch up with a band who went a-touring and never came back, you get your nails done by someone who wishes they were far away.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n‘ComeBack’ is side two - it tries to see beauty in the everyday. A tram ride through a divided city, some wild birds in the airport food hall, a sculpture by the river and a small child in a Vietnamese restaurant. Mick sits on a pier in an obscure seaside town and wonders how he got there while some artists try their bohemian best to pretend their domicile is anywhere but a work-a-day Melbourne suburb.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nLead single ‘First Step In A Homeward Direction’ acts as a mission statement for the collection, and upon release earlier this year (as part of a 7-track EP featuring covers of songs by Aussie artists) it debuted at #1 on the AIR Independent Singles chart.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedia Condition: Mint (M)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSleeve Condition: Mint (M)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: ROCK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 12\/12\/2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Love Vinyl Records","offers":[{"title":"- ROCK *NEW*","offer_id":49262947926258,"sku":"MLK955-YDEI-VE","price":17.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/7018\/9810\/files\/mick-thomas-roving-commission-gocomeback_mWt9M.jpg?v=1779737659","url":"https:\/\/discandvinyl.com\/products\/pre-order-12-12-25-gocomeback-cd-mint-m-mint-m","provider":"DiscandVinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
