Richard Clapton – The Great Escape
An essential chapter in Australian rock, The Great Escape (1982) finds Richard Clapton at his storytelling best — sharp, soulful, and soaked in coastal nostalgia. With standout tracks like “I Am an Island” and “The Great Escape,” the album captures the freedom, heartache, and wanderlust of Aussie life in the early ’80s. Rich production, jangly guitars, and Clapton’s distinctive voice make this a timeless listen for fans of real songwriting and honest rock. Clean vinyl, pure vibe — a must-have for collectors who dig authentic Australian classics that still hit the heart decades later.
