Boys in Town

"Boys in Town" was also included on the international version of the Divinyls 1983 debut studio album, Desperate.

After scoring several gigs in pubs and clubs, the group was discovered by Australian film director Ken Cameron, who was in the midst of making the movie Monkey Grip, based on the novel of the same name by Helen Garner.

That discovery led to Divinyls providing the entire soundtrack for the film, and also resulted in Amphlett getting a supporting role, playing a temperamental rock singer, based on herself.

[1] When Divinyls released their debut studio album Desperate in 1983, four of the songs from the Monkey Grip soundtrack were included, in particular "Boys in Town".

[3] In January 2018, as part of Triple M's "Ozzest 100", the 'most Australian' songs of all time, "Boys in Town" was ranked number 83.
