The Phantom Tom-Tom Records was produced by Tommy Moeller in Australia in 1981.

Offered in select music stores and through The Phantom Club of Australia, the ‘Legend of The Phantom’ 7”/45rpm was limited to a production of only 1,500.

Side A is titled “Legend of the Phantom” and side B is titled “Phantom”.

The record was sold in a simple slip-case, void of text or graphics.

Tom-Tom Records is fully licensed by King Features Syndicate. It was composed by Tommy Moeller who was born on the 23rd of February, 1945 in Liverpool, United Kingdom. Tommy, who moved to Australia in the late 1970’s, creates songs using simple words, insightfully phrased and weaved into pop music. Tommy’s lyrics range from poetic eloquence to repetitive pop rhythmic style to suit each song.
