History[edit]

That early history, basically up to indie fame, is based on their MySpace bio. Has anyone got Australian music mags from the '80s to reference for something better? A copy of Macfarlane? This blog bio?

The discography is now much more complete. I suppose we could include all the non-Australian releases if someone can round them all up. The formatting is horrible, but at least the info's there - David Gerard (talk) 23:47, 24 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Will have a go at the formatting & look at expansion (see if I can find their entry on MacFarlane). Dan arndt (talk) 02:40, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Major overhaul of the article completed. Will need to wiki-table the single releases Dan arndt (talk) 01:53, 9 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Pressure Sway" US Charting?[edit]

The article currently says:

In the United States it reached No. 40 on the Billboard Club Play Singles chart.

It uses RetroUniverse and AllMusic refs. However such charting information is not found at AllMusic, but Sutton does say that Esteem "featured their most well-known track, 'Pressure Sway'". Presumably his statement is a US-centric claim, as other tracks were better known in Australia (see Kent).

Although RetroUniverse does supply the information about "Pressure Sway" it is not a reliable source for charting. A more reliable source is needed, consequently I have placed a citation needed template in the article.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 08:05, 4 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
