The Love Positions were Nic Dalton and Robyn St.Clare. They released an album (vinyl only) called 'Billiepeebup' and a 7 inch single "Light Of Day", which were both released in October 1990. All songs were recorded on a Tascam 244 four track onto cassettes (mostly old TDK compilation tapes taped over!) in various houses in Melbourne, Canberra and Sydney between 1985 and 1989. At the time of its release Robyn was playing in the Hummingbirds and Nic in the Plunderers. The Love Positions played in Sydney about four times.
The album 'Billiepeebup' was the first full-lengther released by Half A Cow but Half A Cow had the test-pressing of it for close to a year as they didn't have any money to press the record (John Needham of Citadel Records ended up putting the manufacturing on his account when Nic told him their predicament!) and the "Light Of Day" single was the first seven inch released by Half A Cow. Each copy of the single was touched off by Musk oil scent and the old Hac store smelt of musk for a few weeks. The band were very surprised when both album and single went in at #2 first week in on the ARIA Alternative Charts in October 1990. The name "Love Positions" comes from a cheap paperback title about sexual positions for young couples!
