In 1998, Ian Robertson gathered together various 4-Track cassette recordings from the previous five years, culled the more debatably salvageable, and released them on his own record label, Agnes Records under the ludicrously high-brow moniker of Odysseus’ Dog. That album, Demented Ravings Of A Middle-Class White Boy, was meant to act as a cleansing of his formative musical years from which he would spring forth with newer, more refined material. Heavily influenced at the time by Frank Zappa, the album was reviewed favourably by many media outlets at the time. It sold copies…albeit it actually sold more copies in Germany and the Netherlands than in Australia!

Whilst writing and recording occurred following that album, the much maligned ‘second album syndrome’ affected Odysseus’ Dog to such a degree that as at 2013, the second album has yet to emerge. Life, children, work, family, malfunctioning recording technology – these things and more halted the release.

Now however, work has begun anew. The new album, The Return Of The Inane, has activity. When? Well, Ian knows better than to put a date on it.
Let’s just say…”Watch this space.”

In the meantime, Agnes Records presents to you, for the first time in full and for free…1998’s Odysseus’ Dog, Demented Ravings Of A Middle-Class White Boy.
Enjoy, and if you have comments feel free to leave them –
