1978 - Nick Cave - These Boots Are Made For Walking

The Boys Next Door (1978)


In the distant past,  Nick Cave who would go on to form the Bad Seeds, was in a nice little post-punk pop band, The Boys Next Door, with the guys who would later go on to become The Birthday Party, Very young and very raw, they still had a nice funky sound.

They really didn't get much notice outside of Australia and New Zealand, but their music is actually pretty enjoyable post-punk, with a very young Nick Cave strutting about, having fun.

From 1978, here is Nick and the rest of the band on their cover of Nancy Sinatra's classic, These Boots Are Made For Walking.
