This is the original TOYTOWN C-60 compilation, pieced together in the front room of the St Kilda flat I lived in at the time. Most of the bands on this compilation were contacted through the post and most I'd had no contact with before, and some no contact after (was it something I said?!). Initially this release came with the the first edition of the fanzine Her Majesty The Stamp #1.

An ambitious compilation that took far longer than it should have to compile (welcome to DIY recording). Old friends The Cannanes, Beat Happening and others were asked to contribute (and did) and Fingernails ushered in a whole new swag of bands to the ranks. It was also the first appearance of Stinky Fire Engine. Initial copies came in a big plastic bag filled with all sorts of fun junk and the second (and final) edition of fanzine Her Majesty The Stamp #2.
