Body Blow was the second studio album by theHeadless Chickens and released in 1991. Bigger, brighter and more produced than previous album, Stunt Clown, it also featured numerous charting singles - 'Cruise Control' (No.6), ‘Gaskrankinstation’ (No. 28) and ‘Donde Este La Pollo’ (no.4), followed by Juice (no.7) and Mr Moon (no.22), the latter two featuring on the 1993 version of the album - making it one of the most successful Flying Nun released albums. It also featured the first (and only) Flying Nun number one single George - which, while technically was on the 1997 album Greedy, the band have decided to include on the Body Blow re-issue because it fits better with this album.
The purpose of this blog is to expose you to the unique and unrepeatable New Zealand scene known as "Dunedin Sound" that emerged in New Zealand in the early eighties. This space takes over from wonderful blogs that in their time served to make known to the world some of the most significant bands and records of that period. The present collection is dedicated to all those kiwi bands -many of them already forgotten- who, without knowing it, wrote a very important page in the history of music.
