  • vSpy vSpy were one of Australia's great political rock bands who were never afraid of speaking out and taking a stand. This song, Credit Cards, is a live favourite and one of the greats.

    Without a doubt the greatest 3 piece this country has ever produced. To this day everyone that I introduce to this band loves them.

      Yep, you are spot-on with that comment. However, I did a bit of research and what I've discovered is (1) Blox ended up as a Chef or Cook in either a Club or a Hospital. He also makes bass guitars and sells them online. (2) The original drummer is playing with a bunch of guys under a similar name. Unfortunately, they are mediocre at best and the lead singer should be in a heavy-metal / thrash group, or something. That Blox is no longer playing professionally is such a shame and a huge loss to the Aussie Music industry. His performance on stage, his vocals, his lyrics, his playing, just his presence........ was the best I've ever seen. But if rumours are correct, he's now got a ladle in his hand instead of a bass guitar pick.

    If anyone asks you who a great Bass player is, then you can look them in the eye and say
    CRAIG BLOXOM. The rhythm and the power of Craig's playing drove the band along with the Drumming if
    Cliff Grigg.
    Who is a great Drummer? Tell them Cliff Grigg is awesome.
    What makes this band one of, if not the best and greatest 3 piece bands is Michael Weiley's Guitar playing. RIP MIchael
