Older Than You

Eskimo Joe

FM (Australia)

WE SAY

If you've ever doubted that these Aussies actually know how to make records, get hold of the Eskimo Joe album and doubt no more. The songs, the vocals, the playing, the production, the packaging, they're all here and they're all top quality. No wonder US labels are sniffing around. The album A Song Is A City is their second but their first for FM. It entered at no 2 in Australia and looks set to go platinum. Older Than You is possibly the most instant track but there are at least two further Records of the Day on the album as well.
