Monstereo Delicio is a rock album by Australian all-girl group, Girl Monstar, which was released in July 1992 via Timberyard Records. Its name references the tropical flowering plant, Monstera deliciosa, or fruit salad plant. The album was recorded by the line-up of Damian Child on bass guitar and backing vocals; Anne McCue on lead guitar, lead vocals and piano; Sherry Valier (a.k.a. Sherry Rich) on guitar, lead vocals and harmonica; and Susie World on drums, percussion and backing vocals. Prior to its release Child was replaced by Janene Abbott, who appears on the cover art but did not provide any recorded material.[1][2] Tracks 1 to 10 were co-produced by Paul Kosky and Darren McCormack (a.k.a. Jedd Starr).[2] Their earlier single, "Joe Cool", had been released in June 1990 and, with its B-side, provides two bonus tracks on this album.
