Divinyls - Essential (1991)

Australian band with core members and songwriters being Christina Amphlett and Mark McEntee.
First major release in Australia was the mini album "Monkey Grip", songs of which were included in the Australian film of the same name and also featured Christina in a supporting role.

This album is a terrific 12-track compilation of the Australian duo's early- and mid-'80s singles. The Divinyls' Essential includes such songs as "Pleasure and Pain," "Temperamental," "Back to the Wall," and "Boys in Town," offering a good overview of their pre-"I Touch Myself" records.
