Midnight Oil / Warumpi Band

RMIT 100th Anniversary Concert

 

Storey Hall, RMIT, Melbourne, Australia

 

7th March 1987

 

 

 

Sourced from recent re-broadcast of the concert on
ABC TV Australia

 

Analogue broadcast -> PC -> Pinnacle Studio 8 -> DVD

 

PAL, 4:3, 5089kbps, LPCM Audio

 

 

 

This is a nugget of pure gold that has suddenly
surfaced without warning.
You may have

seen some of it before, but according to the
broadcaster this is the first
time the entire

show has been aired.

 

The show fits into the space between the 1986
Blackfella/Whitefella tour of
the Australian

outback, and the recording of the album it inspired,
Diesel and Dust.

 

This is one of the last shows played with Peter
Gifford in the band - he
recorded the 

Diesel and Dust album, but retired before the tour
which followed.

 

We get three songs from the Warumpi Band set, two of
which are from their
second album Go 

Bush! which was released soon after this show.

 

In the Oils set we get some real gems, including
Blossom And Blood from
Species Deceases, 

and a very rare performance of Who Can Stand In The
Way from Red Sails In
The Sunset.

There are also a couple of songs that would be part
of Diesel And Dust -
Bullroarer and 

Dreamworld.  Dreamworld in particular is a real gem,
with completely
different verse

lyrics to the final version.  Elvis Costello's
What's So Funny About Peace,
Love And 

Understanding? also gets a run.  This was played
quite regularly over the
next few years,

but this is quite possibly the very first time the
Oils played it live.
