The blending of rock with elements of country music and folk was one of the most important directions in music in the late Sixties and early Seventies. Singer-songwriter Greg Quill and his band Country Radio were pioneers in this field in Australia, alongside groups like Flying Circus and Keith Glass's Sundown. Prior to forming Country Radio, Quill was already well-known on the Sydney folk scene as a solo performer, and he also ran The Shack, the fondly-remembered folk venue at Narrabeen, on Sydney's Northern Beaches in the late 1960s. A meeting with publisher and producer Gus McNeil led to Greg being signed to Gus's new Cellar Music publishing company. Gus produced Greg's first commercial recordings, the single "Fleetwood Plain" and the subsequent album of the same name, recorded for EMI in 1970. The LP was released on EMI's new progressive subsidiary Harvest, although curiously the single "Fleetwood Plain" / Song For David" came out on EMI's pop subsidiary Columbia. To promote the record, Greg put together the original Country Radio touring lineup (June 1970) with Walsh, Anderson, Agostino and Hannagan. At first an acoustic folk act, during 1970-71 thr group's musical style evolved into electric country-rock, the style gaining great popularity (especially amongst musicians) under the influence of albums like The Band's Music From Big Pink, Dylan's Nashville Skyline and The Byrds' Sweethart Of The Rodeo. In 1974 Greg finally recorded the studio album he hadn't been able to make with Country Radio. His superb solo LP The Outlaw's Reply was produced by John Sayers and featured most of the 'classic' Country Radio lineup, including Tolhurst, Bois, Bolton and Blanchflower, plus Russ Hinton (guitars), Peter Jones (keyboards), Peter Walker (keyboards), Chris Neal (synth) and Barry Leef (backing vocals). (quoted from Milesago)
