  • i wonder how many ctfxc'ers are going to look this up?

  • great song, regardless of Pete's troubles now...

  • ace stuff but poor old peter must be suffering in his present job....don't know how he reconciles his lyrics with his current mouthings. Mind you, I heard he was a legal practitioner so I guess that hardens the hide somewhat!

  • Very hard to pick my favourite Oils album but 10-1 and Blue Sky Mine would rank equal first. Such a great band and such great musicians. Australia's finest Midnight Oil>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>AC/DC

  • place without a postcard, 10-1, all (till a point) phemomenal stuff

  • A truly great song!!

  • I'm a yank in CZ, but Australia is tops with me. Listen people, if you REALLY want to see what paradise is, the most beautiful country on earth, nice people, great weather, great beaches, decent beer,great food and the fittest, smartest and FUNNIEST women in the world, it's Australia. Anybody living there, you don't know how lucky you are.

  • course we do - we're farkin AUSTRALIAN!

  • awesome band with awesome songs 5*

  • I nearly forgot "Place Without a Postcard" it's a must have album.

  • "Head Injuries" is really Aussie themed, I really like it and songs such as "Back on the Borderline" are easily liked by all, it may take you a while to get used to "Bus to Bondi" but it's worth checking out.

    There's the mini EP's "Bird Noises" and "Species Deceases" put "Species" in there as essential Oils, 4 great songs.

    "Bird Noises" is a bit different, I've been surprised over the years by the amount of people (I wouldn't have suspected) who've told me they love "Wedding Cake Island."

  • Their first album "Midnight Oil" is one of my favourites. "Nothing Lost and Nothing Gained" is an amazing song. I could listen to an endless loop of that guitar solo for hours. "Powderworks" and "Run by Night" instantly impress and the whole album is to be enjoyed though may need to be listened to a few times so it 'grows' on you.

    "Red Sails in the Sunset" containing classics such as "Kozciusko" and "Best of Both Worlds" is essential to any Oils collection.

  • hit the nail on the head with that!

  • One of their best songs IMO. Love the Oil's!

  • ..and Red Sails in the Sunset is not far behind

  • Their best 2 albums are:

    10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1

    and

    Diesel & Dust

  • I don't know anything about Australian Aboriginal music. So when I listen to this tune, it sounds exactly like a Native American Indian backbeat. Either way, it's a great tune.

  • nicht schlecht...

  • Excellent...

  • My favorites are Blue Sky and Diesel, with Earth and Sun and Moon right after those 2. You can't mess with any of those.

  • Comment removed

  • Is Diesel and Dust their best album?

  • hard to say - i like red sails in the sunset the best but others would say 10, 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1

  • It's the one that everyone is probably most familiar with. It's my 'favorite' but I still find songs from other albums that I haven't heard before and that I really like!

  • I only know this album. What other albums/tracks of theirs are worth listening to?

  • All of them. Seriously.

    The early stuff was the hardest hitting and arguably the best.

  • Which album in particular?

  • I agree but the later stuff wasn't anything to sniff at either. I know that many people believe that "Blue Sky Mining" is a bit commercial but I hear some very distinct sound textures and styles that I like. Damn. Fine. Band.

    dowling1981 you should listen to it all. A very underrated band if you're not Aussie. I'm not, I'm a Yank, but at their peak I thought of them as one of the finest bands in the world. Which they really were.

  • lots just google them

  • Yes but there is not time to listen to all their songs. Which ones are essential?

  • the midnight oil LP is much better than the CD ;)

  • Thats paul hester on the 20,000 watt drum kit in that pic . 23 sec

  • This was, among 3 other CD's, the very first CD I ever bougt early 1988, and I still have it. Great album, great music!!!

  • Love that Little Guitar Riff Right at the End...as it fades off.....

  • yes, touching.

  • no other countries environment minister did this shit leg garret

  • I had this Cranked up this morning, as i was waking up. Recommend it...

  • Worked for me, thanks lol

  • Glad i could Help!!

  • Damn good song!

  • "Diesel And Dust" by far the best CD to hear mainly when you are in trip...:)

  • my favorite, have the cd somewhere.

    Love the chorus

  • Nice collection of pics. I love this song. I need to go out and buy the CD. I killed my cassette tape years ago! :-D
