With an album like this, they made it easy for their record company to ignore them. Midnight Oil was a great live act but The Real Thing is little more than filler and if you gave these guys truth serum, they'd probably admit it. When they finally made a near great ablum - Capricornia - nobody cared. They were down to their last six fans in the states. I was one of them

Try Scream in Blue -- which shows them at their pulverizing best.


Excellent Live Project
This limited edition Australian import does the standard version one better by including an additional bonus disc with multimedia content (including videos of two songs) and an extended interview. 2000 release features 4 new studio songs and 10 live unplugged acoustic songs (8 from The Metro Theatre, Sydney 1994 and 2 from MTV Unplugged 1993).
