Here's the notification and some additional news from the Office:
We are announcing the release of 'Essential Oils' - the band's own pick
of their musical legacy. It is a collection of 36 tracks (the maximum
they could fit on 2CD's) which they have chosen because these songs mean
something special to them - through their writing and recording and also
through sharing them with their incredible live audience.
The Oils have been hands on in putting this release together and in
their choice of artwork. All tracks up to and inc. Blue Sky are
remastered on disc for first time, there's a free download of 'Read
About It' from Canberra on the website, a T shirt and handy tote bag
too. Interviews, (even the odd one with Pete), liners by David Fricke,
band musings. It's going to be fun.
You'll all be wondering about Canberra, given there's a remixed track on
the website. Phil McKellar has mixed a few tracks (not all, just a few
the band chose) and there will be a chance to hear them on a special
radio doco day of release. That won't be announced for a while -
details to follow.
Thanks to all the list for hanging in there through the drought.
We hope you enjoy 'Essential Oils'.
Gtx,
Stephan
