When I first became interested in Midnight Oil thanks to "Beds Are Burning" I
borrowed Diesel and Dust and Red Sails from a friend of mine who had recently
gotten into them himself (thanks to a trip to Australia he had just taken).
I fell
in love with Diesel, but Red Sails didn't make an impression at all. I
finally bought
it around six years later and then discovered that it had some great songs on
it
(for me "Sleep," "Jimmy Sharman's Boxers," "Minutes to Midnight,"
"Kosciusko,"
"Best of Both Worlds" and "Who Can Stand in the Way"). So I definitely agree
with what you say about using Red Sails to introduce someone to Midnight Oil.
It takes some time to sink in.
