Notes.
1. 'Max Q', (named after Ollie's dog) consisted of Michael Hutchence (vocals and
songwriting) and Ollie Olsen (songwriting and production), who were accompanied by key members
of the post-punk scene in Melbourne, Australia; most of whom had previously collaborated 
with Olsen. The project followed on from Hutchence and Olsen's work on the film, 'Dogs in
Space', where they had first met.
2. "Ollie isn't supposed to hang around with pop stars and I'm not supposed to hang
around with punk types. The band is made up of rowdy friends from Melbourne. These guys are
good musicians who've never had a chance. Most of them have never even been in a studio. 
These are real underground people who don't have any money. Some of them have never been
on a plane before. They were worried that working with me, they'd lose their underground 
status" - Michael Hutchence (1989).
