Espresso Bongo is the second studio album released by Mental As Anything. It was released in July 1980, produced by Cameron Allan, and peaked at #37 on the Australian Album charts. The only single released from the album, "Come Around", written by Martin Plaza was released in June 1980 and peaked at #18 on the Australian Singles charts. Virgin Records passed on their option to release this album overseas due to theirs and the band's dissatisfaction with the finished product.
