Hard Knocks [1980]

Hard Knocks Original Movie Soundtrack 1980

A bit of a different post for you today. A Soundtrack, but a very good one. From the 1980 movie of the same name starring such actors as Tracy Mann ( she won an AFI award for Best Actress in a Lead Role for this film ) Bill Hunter, Max Cullen and Deborah Conway.

A brillant Aussie packed soundtrack. I haven't unfortunetly added a link because I am unable to find one song. ( See My Begging list to the side) but I wanted to share it with you anyway in the hope someone may be able to help me with the missing track from John St Peeters.

Tracklist:

01 Paul Kelly and the Dots - Hard Knocks 02 Stevie Wright - Evie Part One 03 Billy Thorpe - Most People I Know 04 The Sports - Who Listens to the Radio 05 Matt Taylor - I Remember When I Was Young 06 William Shakespeare - My Little Angel 07 Cold Chisel - Breakfast at Sweethearts 08 The Angels - Take a Long Line 09 Richard Clapton - When the Heat's Off 10 John St Peeters - High Class Woman 11 Mondo Rock - Fugitive Kind 12 The Dingoes - Way Out West 13 John Paul Young - Where The Action Is 14 John Paul Young - Birmingham 15 ACDC - High Voltage 16 Renée Geyer - Heading in the Right Direction 17 Sherbet - Howzat 18 Darryl Cotton - Dont Let It Get to You
