You should type it in & watch it it's darn amazing all amped up & fully electrified with acustic bits thrown so they chose a good song being his 1st :)
Two Aussie LEGENDS,never got to see Barnsey while growin' up in Northern Ireland but has always been on my playlist, been fortunate enough to catch Mr Garrett and his band a couple a times here in Toronto.Aussie Rawks!
That was better than I thought it was going to be. I love Tull and the Oils, but still it seemed like it should be incongruous. Hilarious that Peter auditioned with that.
Our lead singer &(Former Environment Minister) from one of Australia's most iconic bands 'Midnight Oil' (Midnight O & formed in the1970's is back out of politics & has started making music again & looks much happier for it. Hoping the gradually speeding up pace of Peter Garrett appearing doing things with ex Midnight Oil members & Jimi Barnes,solo & with a combo of Midnight Oil & Cold Chisel members forecast's a massive Australia wide Midnight Oil & Cold chisel Double-Header concert lineup..... Ps It took me till the 24th of January to finally think of a New Years wish,lol :)
hey little john we are also an aussie band doing this song ...but better in my opinion !!-however biased that seems ! lol...ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Yw2nUJbPKuU.html
been watching this since yesterday... always loved M. Garrett...a man for all (wo)men...don't know M. Barnes... but will definetly look into his stuff... thanks for the post...cheers, gg
The Oils did covers from time to time-Instant Karma by John Lennon out the front of the Exxon building in New York,Know Your Product by the Saints and one I saw live at a gig was a pretty nice cover of Atomic Electric by Rebecca's Empire.But with so many great Oils songs it would have been hard to fit many in. Come back Pete the Radio needs you to come and save it from the garbage they play today.This a good duet,Barnsey's voice does get better with age.
hi mark...my aussie band writes much more cutting social commentary than the oils now- afraid garrett has sold out -little angry bands like mine are much hungrier -and...our version of loco breath is BETTER ! lol ...ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Yw2nUJbPKuU.html
