Looks good. Well done. Lovely cover pic of the red dirt. Easy to navigate too.

I agree.  I'm a bit disappointed, too but I believe the primary purpose of this release along wiht the new web site is to put the Oils back on the map and pave the way for further activities including the box set (the Office has assured me the idea has not been dumped at all). They also talked about "some fan only releases further down the line" whatever that means in particular. So let's hope the response to 'Essential Oils' will be so positive to encourage them to put out more. I've pre-ordered mine ;).

Cheers,

Stephan

I think we have to think this way. We're not the only fans they have. Just the obsessive ones. This will appeal to the casual fans, maybe even the ones who only ever heard Bed are Burning. Now, if they buy this and find out they love it, then the next step is to buy the albums, and hey presto, what's around the corner but a massive boxset.
This may help sell that.

Sorry folks, I don't want to sound ungrateful, and of course I'll buy the album. (yes, another obsessive fan).
 
But I'm quite disappointed, after almost two years of long silences and ambiguous promises, some of them about "unheard and unseen stuff"...all we have is a Greatest Hits album.
 
After 20.000 Watt RSL and Flat Chat compilations I find hard to understand the release of another "Best of" album...
 
Well, let's hope something more interesting (live albums...) will come
 
Have a nice day
