An Essential Live Recording.......2007-03-16
For those who thought Midnight Oil was just about a freakishly tall bald headed guy wailing about burning beds, take a listen or two to this record, and you will realize that this band was as good as any heavyweight rock band of its time.
This is arguably the best live record made to capture the music of the 1980's. I have a number of U2 live recordings and bootlegs and DVDs, and I've long thought they are the best band I've ever seen live, but these guys give U2 a real run for their money. [I also saw Midnight Oil live in Philadelphia in 1988-89 and it was one of most memorable concerts I've attended].
From Stars of Warburton to Read About It to Hercules to Brave Faces to Beds are Burning, this CD presents the Oils at their blistering best from each phase of their tremendous career from the late 1970's through the 1980's. Their music had tremendous passion, energy, and featured great musicianship, improvisation and vocal harmonies which make each of these tracks memorable.
Don't miss this record. It's a steal.
260 Million...I can't hear you at all..........2006-10-05
Scream In Blue takes its title from a mostly instrumental track atypical among the Oils canon, but the album as a whole is vintage in every sense. Dominated by tracks from 10,9,8... (their top early 80's album) and Diesel and Dust (their best from the latter part of the decade), SIB features improved versions of great songs, delivered with more verve than their comparatively sedate studio siblings. "Star of Warburton" achieves a new vigor; "Sometime"s emerges as an all-out anthem; "Only The Strong" rocks as hard as anything in the band's catalogue. Even better, songs that originally targeted Australian issues convincingly resonate among other audiences. Peter Garrett slyly directs "Progress" at Americanism when delivered in New York, while a classic like "Beds Are Burning" remains quintessentially Australian.
Midnight Oil doesn't play significantly with arrangements, but the interplay of guitars and the wonderful contrast of the band's two bassists make the album musically engaging. Lots of great songs are not included (and no songs from Head Injuries seems surprising), but its hard to argue with the song inclusion here as every cut is enjoyable. A curious music fan wishing to check out Midnight Oil would not go wrong checking this album out first; if you don't like the songs here, the studio selections are unlucky to impress you.
Midnight Oil: the best live band to exist?.......2004-04-14
Scream In Blue is worth any price. Anyone who has seen Midnight Oil in concert will tell you that the experience can be very itense. And while most live albums out there do not even come close to replicating a live setting, Scream In Blue remains very true to a Midnight Oil show.
The great thing about Midnight Oil's performance quality is that they do not slack on stage. Some bands drive all of their energy into physical antics to the point where their music sounds sloppy and unorganized. Other bands aim for a precise performance and remain stoic on stage. Midnight Oil somehow combines the best of both worlds: they are absolutely crazy on stage but they are incredibly tight and focused.
When it comes to the band's back catalog, the live recordings of early tunes such as Powderworks, Only The Strong, Read About It, and Brave Faces absolutely pound the living daylights out of the studio versions. The more recent songs (at the time) from Diesel & Dust and Blue Sky Mining are a bit more close to their origin, but not without the boost. Even with a song like Sell My Soul, you can't deny that the version found here is stronger.
The uncredited track is splendid. A non-descript album track from 1981's Place Without A Postcard called Burnie gets an acoustic treatment in the studio. And like everything else on the CD, it is a vast improvement from the original recording.
There are no bad songs or weak performances. The energy never lets up. And for the price I see this CD going for nowadays, it is an absolute steal. Buy it.
Explosive!.......2004-03-25
I pretty much said it all in the title of this post. This is THE BEST live album I have ever heard. I first purchased it back in... well... my last year of elementary school. The cassette was purple! As if that couldn't be any cooler! Anyway... to this day, I can put that album (now a CD) on and still feel as excited as I did as a kid. There's more raw energy on that one CD than most bands could even dream of creating over an entire career. Honestly... it makes me want to move like Peter Garret himself... thrashing around more madly than I ever have at a punk or metal show. It's like an early greatest hits all captured live, so there's never a letdown! I know alot of people don't even like live recordings, but I'm sure this one could change anyones mind. And to think... before the end of this year (2004) we'll even have a live DVD with 2 complete Oils shows on it plus a bonus CD of one of those shows. The Oils might be done now, but this album will continue to destroy anyone elses attempt at a live album! Forever! Hopefully it'll teach a few people along the way as well...
Screaming the Midnight Oil...live.......2004-03-05
Scream In Blue Live is taken from these five concerts:
1) Hordern Pavilion, Sydney, 1984
2) Brisbane Boondall Centre, 1990
3) Capitol Theatre, Sydney, 1982
4) 6th Avenue, NY, NY
5) Our Common Future, Darlinghurst, 1989
The title track, originally on their 10,9,8... album, is presented here as a brief instrumental before launching into another song from that same album, the social and political ills outlined in the punkish "Read About It." The opening guitar playing sounds rougher and less polished compared to the studio version and drives the effectiveness of this song. The song of some driven insane by a life of alienation, of a life consisting of eating and sleeping in "Only The Strong" is given a hard-driving treatment and is a very energetic number, ending with some Native American chanting.
The pained viewpoint of an activist fighting a battle against mass media and politicians in "Brave Faces" from Place Without A Postcard with its lively guitar makes for a great performance.
Blue Sky Mining is represented solely by "Stars Of Warburton," where the hallmarks of aborigine culture is being superceded by hypermart malls, industrial technology, and ATMs.
The breakthrough Diesel And Dust is represented by four tracks. "Dreamworld," on white industry encroaching on the free spaces of the aboriginal wilderness. "Beds Are Burning" starts with a speech from Peter Garrett on aborigines living in Australia for 40-60,000 years. "They didn't sell it to anybody...they didn't trade it in for houses up the coast/they had it stolen off of them." Hence, the need to give back some form of recompense to the disenfranchised aborigines. I didn't quite picture this as a good live song, but leaving it off would be a glaring omission. That's followed by "Sell My Soul," on farmers who struggle to keep their heritage and dignity instead of giving in to mechanized industry and expanding cities, and then by "Sometimes," whose guitarwork matched the punk fury of material from the 10,9,8... album, was a definite candidate to do live and its inclusion here is well-chosen. Like "Beds Are Burning," this was taken from Our Common Future.
"You've been trapped in your building all morning with a window that never opens, come and stand underneath this tree and you'll understand what this argument is all about," says Garrett as he gets into "Progress" from the Species Decreases EP, in a denunciation of pollution, world McDonaldization, increased technology resulting in unemployment. As he states quite clearly, "Some say that's progress/I say that's cruel."
"Who needs a stealth bomber?" asks Garrett before launching into the slamming "Hercules," taken from the Species Decreases EP and performed at Brisbane, decries the US military presence in the South Pacific: "Keep us radioactive free/Strike a bell in Hiroshima Park." Indeed, "why sink Pacific Dreams"?
After a drum solo, the group do "Powderworks" from their self-titled debut. This angry tune decries a life of being cheated. The album ends with an uncredited track, a new studio version of "Burnie" from Place Without A Postcard, of someone loving their beach home the way it is: "This is my home/This is my sea/Don't paint it with the future, of factories."
Choosing the most poignant themes echoing the ecological and political danger befalling Earth, Midnight Oil's compilation of live tracks also demonstrates the energy and passion they have in their form of protest rock.

Album Description
Rebuilding the Lost Oz Before Judy Garland sang Over the Rainbow, Oz had inspired over 200 songs. This CD provides an overview of the rich early musical legacy of Oz. Most of the original music of Oz is associated with Baums stage works: The Wizard of Oz (1902), The Woggle-Bug (1905), and The Tik-Tok Man of Oz (1913). In the absence of published vocal scores, music was gathered in the form of published songs, piano or orchestral medley arrangements, and manuscripts. For the Wizard suite, I drew upon Tietjens own manuscript indications and a 1902 orchestral selection by Hilding Anderson, who would later orchestrate for Gershwin shows. The Tik-Tok Man selection is a 1913 orchestral arrangement by J. Bodewalt Lampe, who, like Gottschalk, was a pioneering film composer. From these scores, it was a matter of laying down the parts track by track; fortunately, advances in digital sampling synthesis have allowed me to record this music within a reasonable budget without sounding like Switched-on-Baum. The scores and parts are available for performance. The Cowardly Lions share of this collaboration was done before David and I met, through hours of on-line conversation. The audience for The Wizard of Oz in 1902 largely arrived in horse drawn carriages to see the first stage show in history with electrically controlled lighting. For this project to have been coordinated through the internet and realized digitally is a wonder worthy of Baums imagination.

Wonderful Restorations.......2006-06-04
James Doyle does a wonderful job restoring and re-creating these early scores which would otherwise be lost to time. You should also check out his recording "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz - Toronto Cast Recording", a completely new musical production which is extremely faithful to Baum's original book.
What?.......2000-07-20
Can someone PLEASE help me? I love the story of The Wizard of Oz. I'm sure this is a great CD, but does it have any words or is it just music. If some one can help me I would be vary thankful!
Excellent, historical, entertaining.......2000-01-01
The Hungry Tiger CD _Before the Rainbow_ is excellent and I recommend it highly. I might (or might not) have preferred "period instruments" to the synthesizer, but then it would have cost too much to produce and we'd be without anything. My roommate/landlady said the final grand march from Patchwork Girl sounded like "roller skating music." But that was intended as a compliment. No Oz fan can live without this recording.
