1994 Demo - Sugarbone?

Look what I have just found o.O And of course with a ridiculus price...

Incredible and ultra rare item.
This is an original and official 1994 Demo tape from Nikka Costa’s early band Sydney band SugarBone.
This tape was sent to a Sydney music venue and acquired by myself from the promoter.
The tracks are powerful guitar funk with some of Nikkis most sexual vocals ever (track 2 in particular)
Running time is just over 17 minutes
These recordings has never been released.

The tape does not have a song list so the titles are just my guess work.

1) Everybody’s on this Ride ( or Get Yourself a Little Head Space)
2) Let Me Be Your Love Child
3) Aint No Mountain to be Climbed (or Put it Down)

Her next venture was a four-piece called Sugarbone, which toured the country. "It was really scary to unveil it but the reaction was good. It helped my confidence," she said. "So out of Sugarbone, I was signed to Mushroom in Australia."; ▶ Reply to This

If 4-5 people give $10-15 via paypal or something to someone from the forum, it would be much more fair for all of us. I don't want to be the buyer, I live in Europe. I suggest the buyer shall be someone from Australia. I will send him/her $15 via paypal (not more, I'm poor) and if someone else agrees... there we have it... Hope you'll like the idea...; ▶ Reply to This

I know... but I put out feelers about Sugarbone.. since I'd never known about this stint in her career so hopefully we'll see what I get back on it..; ▶ Reply to This

About $46 USD after shipping it would have been $55 (ish); ▶ Reply to This
