Source-derived summary

Red Back Fever is the tenth studio album by hard rock band The Angels and reached No. 14 on the ARIA Albums Chart and No. 41 in New Zealand.

Editorial summary

Begin with the source’s own compact description: “Red Back Fever” is album by The Angels. The dossier treats that line as a proposition to test through Back, Fever and album, not as a finished interpretation.

Editorial reviewA useful identification and reception guide that helps separate the work itself from editions, performances, ownership and later interpretation. The current 29-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1991. For this dossier, Back, Fever and album is the immediate research focus.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “album by The Angels” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

Object files, edition statements, performance records and contemporary criticism preserve different stages of the work’s history. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jan 2, 2023. The linked authority identifier is Q17054424. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank.

Critical limits

Titles can refer to several editions, objects or performances, making precise identification essential before interpretation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Separate the work, its editions or performances, and its later reception. Catalogue records, publication histories and object files often preserve different parts of that story.
