Part of the Oz Rock series. Keep an eye out for new caches in this series.
Being fans of Australian music we decided to create a series in and around Canberra that celebrates "Oz Rock". Each cache is connected (however abstractly) to an Australian made song, band, artist, album or famous lyric.
We are still building this series so stay tuned for new caches in the OZ Rock series.
==Midnight Oil: King of the Mountain==
Midnight Oil (also known informally as The Oils to fans), were an Australian rock band from Sydney originally performing as Farm in 1972, by 1975 the band was touring the east coast. By late 1976, Garrett moved to Sydney to complete his law degree, and Farm changed its name to Midnight Oil by drawing the name out of a hat.
Through a long and distinguished career, the band became known for its driving hard-rock sound, intense live performances and political activism, particularly in aid of anti-nuclear, environmentalist and indigenous causes.
Midnight Oil’s albums which peaked in the Australian Top Ten were 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Red Sails in the Sunset, Species Deceases, Diesel and Dust, Blue Sky Mining, Scream in Blue (Live), Earth and Sun and Moon, Breathe, 20,000 Watt R.S.L., Redneck Wonderland, The Real Thing, Capricornia and Flat Chat. Australian Top Ten singles were "Power and the Passion", "The Dead Heart", "Beds Are Burning" and "Blue Sky Mine". Aside from chart success, both "Power and the Passion" and "Beds Are Burning" were listed by Australasian Performing Right Association (APRA) in the Top 30 best Australian songs of all time in 2001. In December 2002, Garrett announced that he would seek to further his political career and Midnight Oil disbanded.
"King of the Mountain" comes from the 1990 album 'Blue Sky Mining'.
