Here here, it's great hidden gem in the Oils cannon!
The remaster has given if some extra guts too

I just heard that Glyn Johns, producer of "Place Without a Postcard", has an autobiography coming out in November.  I wonder if there will be much mention of Midnight Oil.  We can hope, but with The Beatles, Bob Dylan, The Stones, Eric Clapton, The Who, Led Zeppelin, Eagles, etc. to write about, I doubt we'll get much (if any) time.

Here's a link to the book here in Canada: http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/0399163875/

Related, I just (finally) got PWaP on vinyl today.  Over the last few years I've been realizing it's one of my favourite Oils albums, possibly my very favourite.  Despite the muddy sound, or maybe because of it, it's such an atmospheric album; every time I listen to it I get taken to that Place.
