Goolutionites And The Real People is the second LP by the Australian psych-prog-rock band Tamam Shud, who took their name from a Persian phrase meaning the absolute end. As four tracks from their debut album were successfully used on a soundtrack, they were offered a record deal for a second album by the major label Warner Bros. Records – responsible for producing soundtracks for the film studios. At the time of recording at United Sound Studios, the four-piece band from Sydney consisted of Lindsay Bjerre (vocals, rhythm guitar), Tim Gaze (lead guitar, piano), Peter Barron (bass guitar, fuzz bass) and Dannie Davidson (drums).

Their follow-up album was released in October 1970 and is widely regarded as their magnum opus, showcasing their musical shift towards a more experimental progressive rock style that differed significantly from the acid/psychedelic rock of their debut. This highly acclaimed concept album, featuring socially and environmentally critical lyrics by Lindsay Bjerre, is dominated by guitar-heavy riffing, flowing leads and kind of jazzy licks from the then 16-year-old guitar prodigy Tim Gaze. The band split up shortly after recording the album, with Gaze and Davidson going on to join Kahvas Jute. Australian music journalist Ian McFarlane described it as one of the truly great Australian progressive rock albums. Today, it is extremely rare and ranks among the most sought-after collector’s items from Down Under.
