Midnight Oil från Australien med karismatiska sångaren Peter Garrett hade sin storhetstid i slutet av 80-talet/början 90-talet. I MTV-erans tid erövrade man världen. Så även Sverige. Nu har bandet efter många års frånvaro gjort comeback. <br/><br/>"THE VINYL COLLECTION" innehåller 11 studioalbum samt två maxisinglar. Alla som 180-grams vinyler.<br/><br/><br/><br/>This definitive Oils collection includes all of Midnight Oil's 11 classic studio LP's plus their two 12" EP's on 180gsm Vinyl in one complete box. Each vinyl has been remastered from the original tapes by Steve Smart at Studios 301, Sydney and then mastered for Vinyl at Abbey Road Studios, London. The artwork has been painstakingly restored to match the original releases and this deluxe boxset includes the original alternative album cover for Capricornia.<br/><br/>Midnight Oil is more than just a rock & roll band. From their beginnings as an inner city punk group gigging around Australian pubs in the late 70s they grew into one of Australia's most successful international rock bands in the 80s and 90s. Midnight Oil followed nobody else's rules. They blazed trails, they took stands and they pushed all boundaries. Most importantly, across a quarter of a century this iconic band created a uniquely Australian sound that is captured here in one complete vinyl collection for the very first time.<br/><br/>Contents<br/><br/>Midnight Oil<br/>Head Injuries<br/>Bird Noises (ep)<br/>Place Without A Postcard<br/>10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1<br/>Red Sails In The Sunset<br/>Species Deceases (ep)<br/>Diesel and Dust<br/>Blue Sky Mining<br/>Earth and Sun and Moon<br/>Breathe<br/>Redneck Wonderland<br/>Capricornia<br/>(8hrs 43mins of music)

BMG are proud to release this deluxe anthology that looks back at the years which built the Saxon legend. Spanning their first nine albums 'Decade Of The Eagle' is the very best of the first decade of their astonishing career. This anthology represents the sweep and scope of what Saxon have achieved. <br/><br/>They were certainly a core part of the whole NWOBHM movement, perhaps the greatest metal genre of them all, but moved beyond this to become one of the all-time masters of heavy metal. But in doing so, Saxon have also ensured they are now representative of the heart and soul from the NWOBHM time. They have done this by remaining true to the values which established them in the first place. Driven by a desire to continuously set the highest standards and meet them head on, Saxon's work on those nine studio albums still resonates resoundingly. From 'Rainbow Theme', the opening track on that debut, to 'Red Alert', the closing song on 'Destiny', this is timeless stuff. Music that will continue to inspire metalheads for generations to come, as it has influenced so may up until now. In those immortal words, fill your heads with... HEAVY METAL THUNDER!
