Original Australian pressing of ‘The Heart’s The Best Part’ by All Night Radio, released in 1984 on AIM Records. Fronted by South African musician Steve Louw, All Night Radio blended rock, new wave and pub-rock energy with a sharp melodic edge, and this debut album has become a sought-after title among collectors of South African rock and obscure 1980s independent releases.
Originally emerging from the South African music scene, Steve Louw and All Night Radio developed a reputation for literate songwriting and politically aware themes, wrapped in a punchy rock sound. ‘The Heart’s The Best Part’ includes tracks such as ‘Breaking Hearts’, ‘Sea Side Love’, ‘Debbie’, ‘City Hall’, ‘Land Of Sin’ and the title track ‘The Heart’s The Best Part’.
This copy appears to be an Australian AIM pressing and includes the original printed inner sleeve. A strong collectable piece for fans of South African rock, Australian AIM releases and harder-to-find mid-1980s alternative rock vinyl.
