Long before there was an ‘highway to hell’ late Ac/dc singer Bon Scott was the front-man of Australian own Fraternity, a Sydney rock band formed in 1970. For the first time on this delicious gatefold double lp you’ll find the complete recordings of this unbelievable act. Formerly four members of the Levi Smith's Clefs, John Bisset on keyboards, Tony Buettel on drums, Bruce Howe on bass guitar and vocals, and Mick Jurd on lead guitar. Due to conflict at the time with their singer, Barry McAskill, the group abandoned him and relocated to Adelaide in 1971 to restart their career as Fraternity on the Sweet Peach label. Fraternity’s debut release was a cover of The Moody Blues track “Question” backed with an Ashdown/Stewart song “Why Did It Have To Be Me?”. While the band had competent recording vocals, they were lacking a definitive front-man. Bon Scott at the time was performing with a group called The Valentines. The band liked his raw energy and felt that he would be a good addition to the band. After some persuasion, Bon agreed to relocate and joined them as lead singer. The band’s biggest local hit was a cover of Blackfeather’s "Seasons of Change" which peaked at No.1 in Adelaide. In 1971, Fraternity went on to win the Hoadley's Battle of the Sounds. Bon Scott's previous band, The Valentines, had been a finalist in this competition two years earlier. Fraternity were now being touted as "The Next Big Band" and the competition prize was a free trip to London. However, this trip would go on to be the end of Fraternity as we know it.

Out of the depths of Massachusetts, High n’ Heavy continue to bring the fire. Forming in 2014, under the influence of The Stooges and Black Sabbath, this quartet has put together a formidable blend of dirty 70’s style rock, doom and blues that’d make the devil blush. Their live shows come with an energy that leaves you with your brain tingling, and your knees weak. They were fortunate to have played RPM Fest ’19, as well as opening for The Obsessed. Their studio work has gotten better with each of their four previous albums. With their fifth on the horizon. As Classic Rock Magazine once said, “High n’ Heavy ain’t just the name of the band, it’s also the name of the game…” High n’ Heavy’s upcoming release “V” sees the band continue their ascent towards the rock n’ roll mountain top. Going back into the studio with Trevor Vaughan at the helm, their sound is larger than ever before. The songwriting, and performance, on this album proves yet again that they are a band that’s found its groove, but is also just getting started. 8 huge tracks for this release will make this their greatest offering to the gods of rock n’ roll!
