Sad & Dangerous is the first major release by the Australian trio, Dirty Three. The album, recorded live at Scuzz Studio, includes ten songs from their gig-give-away demo cassette release.

Reception

Rolling Stone Australia said the album was, "Gently percussive, harshly percussive, tightly coiled and free-wheeling. The Dirty Three's second disc was steeped in the same exhilarating contradictions as their riveting live performances, invariably an emotional roller-coaster." The genre was described as, "As close to jazz as rock and roll, and a fair way from both."
