Get on Board was the debut album from the Badloves, the Australian soul and R&B outfit Michael Spiby had started as DC3 in 1990 before a name change a year later. Mushroom Records released it in July 1993, and it wears its influences proudly: warm soul grooves, a rootsy swing and Spiby's voice out front doing the heavy lifting, as if pub rock had spent a long weekend with an old stack of soul records.
It found its audience fast. The album went double platinum in Australia and came back in 1994 with a bonus disc of 8 extra tracks. At the 1994 ARIA Awards it was up for Album of the Year and took home Best New Talent and Breakthrough Artist – Album, while its first single, "Lost", won Breakthrough Artist – Single. A year later it was nominated again, this time for Highest Selling Album. "Green Limousine" also made the countdowns.
