Members of Wild West had connections to Voigt 465, Pel Mel, Hope is a New Coat & Moral Fibro, among others - This is definitely one of the best punk EPs from the "golden era" of Australian punk - all 4 songs are brilliant . It is certainly better than a lot of other inferior releases that fetch much higher prices - get a copy while its still affordable! The No Night Sweats blog is worth checking out for more info on this incredibly under-rated band. Phil Turnbull (i think) talking about the EP: "We released the "Beat The Drought" EP in 1980 containing "Calling The House" (a somewhat hypnotic and graceful 5/4 that garnered high rotation on 2JJ for quite a while); "Chinchilla" (a mesmerizing verse drone with a punchy two note chorus); "We Can Do" (sort of shouted funk with a climactic chorus change and a pots and pans percussion ending based on "Don't Stop Till You Get Enough") and "Red Sea" (a slightly experimental 3 section piece with buzzing synths and a lovely short bass 'solo' at the end)." - taken from nonightsweats.com
