Description:
Singer-songwriter Ross Ryan's breakthrough single 'I Am Pegasus' was released in October 1973. Not only did it top the charts, earning him the first of five gold records, it would also go on to be recognized as one of the all time classic Australian singles – and would continue Ryan's swift ascendancy since being 'plucked from obscurity' for a Roy Orbison support a year earlier. Ryan ended up doing the whole tour. Orbison unexpectedly received bad reviews with Ryan going over a storm. As a result of all this positive publicity, he was suddenly deluged with record contract offers eventually signing to EMI.

The subsequent album (Ryan’s third) .my name means horse repeated the success of the single and would go triple gold. It was produced by Peter Dawkins and arranged by Peter Martin (SCRA). The 12 track LP included Pegasus, the follow up single Orchestra Ladies, and classic album tracks including Blood On The Microphone, 606 and Don’t Look To Me. Ryan was even presented with a gold record by then Prime Minister Gough Whitlam.

Aztec Music’s reissue of …my name means horse is packaged in our famous 6 panel digi-pak, was digitally remastered by Gil Matthews, has 2 bonus tracks, a 24 page book with rare photos and liner notes by Ted Lethborg.
