^{Nothing Grows on St Kilda Beach: Original Sacred Cowboys in their element.} 

Eclectic label Kasumen Records is marching past its 10^th anniversary with some compelling releases and the latest is “Cowboy Logic”, a compilation douible CD anthology of Sacred Cowboys live and studio material.

The band will return to live stages at Shotkickers in Thornbury, Melbourne, on October 11, trckets for which are here.

Founders Garry Gray (ex-Negatives) and Mark Ferrie(The Models) will be joined in the new line-up by Tim Deane (Ron Peno's Superstitions), Anthony Paine (Black Cab) and Damian Fitzgerald (Sore Eyes.) There are plans to record a new album and to play more shows.

Sacred Cowboys began in 1982 as a Melbourne supergroup . Purloining the band name from “Get Smart” and The Groovy Guru, the Cowboys left the “Countdown” TV set with host Molly Meldrum declaring them “the worst band I've seen in five years…”.

Disc 1 of “Cowboy Logic” kicks off with Sacred Cowboys studio album tracks from the 1980s line up, and the ‘90s and 2000s band with Spencer P Jones and Penny Ikinger. It winds up with tracks from Garry's post Cowboys work with Spencer P Jones and later Ed Clayton-Jones.

Disc 2 is a live bonus disc which kicks off with a show from 1994 when Spencer joined the Cowboys. This is followed by a low-fi but fun few tracks from the Cowboys  in 2006 with Spencer and Penny on guitars and Ash Wednesday on keys. It concludes with a studio outtake from 2006 - a raw power version of “Bangkok” with Garry, Spencer, Penny, Stephan Fidock and Nick Rischbieth.
