A long-overdue reissue of one of Australian power pop's best-kept secrets.

Known to some as The Innocents and briefly managed by the legendary Kim Fowley, Beathoven were among the finest exponents of late 70s power pop, combining infectious melodies, sharp songwriting and the youthful energy that made the genre so exciting in the first place.

"Here's Tas-Mania!" compiles fourteen recordings made between 1976 and 1981 for EMI and RCA, capturing the band at their creative peak. Most of these tracks remained unreleased at the time, while three appear here for the first time ever. The result is a superb collection of jangling guitars, irresistible hooks and expertly crafted pop songs that easily stand alongside better-known power pop classics of the era.

Originally released by Raven Records in 1984 and long considered a cult favourite among collectors, this expanded edition finally gives the music the treatment it deserves. Recommended for fans of The Records, The Boys, Dwight Twilley, The Plimsouls and classic late 70s power pop.

Includes extensive liner notes and a die-cut OBI strip.
