It makes sense that a person who loves Australia got
that way for a
reason, and the first was Midnight Oil. Not many know it, but
they only broke up for good in 2001, after Peter Garrett, the lead
singer, ran for Parliament. I saw them in Atlanta and shall never
forget it, as I met them as well! The Powderworks list is not
as lively as it once was, but it is still goin' on!

Guitarist extraordinaire Jim Moginie from the Oils has a solo album and
is also excellent.

I must mention Neil
Murray. The Oils and his band, Warumpi Band,
toured outback settlements
in the late 80s. Neil is a solo artist now and worth a real
listen.

I
am a fan of the late 70s, early 80s show The
Professionals
as
well and here is Dave's
excellent site to get you started. As you
know, there is nothing like a good pair of flares.
Not to mention goofy
music and fast cars.
The Professionals
And I don't mean the U.S. version
starting this fall (though I will
certainly check it out), but the original British version with John
Simm and Philip Glenister.
The follow-up Ashes to Ashes, is just as good! The Railway Arms
is where it's at, groovy.
