Their album ...ish remains one of the all-time best-selling debuts in Australian music history, but no record company wanted to sign 1927. Lead singer Erik Weideman talks about putting that multi-platinum album together after he was spotted on Hey Hey It's Saturday talent quest Red Faces by former Moving Pictures member Garry Frost and how it was producer Charles Fisher who took a chance on the pop/rock quartet. While the music industry might have been unsure about 1927, the Australian public weren't, with hit after hit being lifted from ...ish. Erik talks about songs like "That's When I Think Of You", "If I Could" and "Compulsory Hero", and shares his disbelief when Garry decided to quit the band while they were working on their follow-up album. Although not as commercially successful, second album The Other Side was another enjoyable experience for Erik, notwithstanding the line-up change, but the singer explains why 1927's self-titled third album did not go so well and what led to the ultimate demise of the band in the mid-'90s.
