Pseudo Echo – A Beat For You (Australia 12″)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1984

“A Beat for You” is a song by the Australian pop group Pseudo Echo. The song was released in April 1984 as the second single from their debut studio album, Autumnal Park (1984). The song peaked at number 12 on the Australian Kent Music Report.

AllMusic said, “driving hard rock riffs puncture Pierre Gigliotti and James Leigh’s wall of synthesizers. Vocalist Brian Canham has a darkly erotic voice that only new wave groups seem to breed — imagine a cross between Jim Kerr of Simple Minds and Midge Ure.”
