Described as a hard rock band on Wikipedia, i would categorize them as a solid pop/rock band instead. 'Where were you' was the chart follow up to their 1977 hit 'Short changed again' (#53). It began its ascent in February of '78 & climbed to #25 nationally.

With the strong vocals backing the tight musicianship and the catchy lyrics, Finch looked like they were in it for the long haul, but line up alterations and a name change to 'Contraband' and the relative failure of the next album at home, saw the end of the band within 18 months, despite interest and a signing overseas. 

Enjoy this minor Aussie classic!
