Listening notes
Midnight Oil's Complete Vinyl Box Set, released by Legacy in 2017 under catalog number 88985398511, collects the band's studio album discography across thirteen vinyl records, joined by two EPs, and packaged as a box set. The set spans the full arc of the group's recorded output, from the self-titled debut through Capricornia, and encompasses albums including Head Injuries, Place Without A Postcard, 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1, Red Sails In The Sunset, Diesel And Dust, Blue Sky Mining, Earth And Sun And Moon, Breathe, Redneck Wonderland, and Capricornia. The two EPs included are Bird Noises and Species Deceases.
The set is catalogued under the genres of Alternative Rock, Pop Rock, Post-Punk, Pub Rock, and Rock. Sides run from A through Z, with individual album titles serving as unlabeled dividers within the sequencing. Tracks are distributed across sides in a manner consistent with their original album configurations, though no track timings are documented in the available data.
Among the titles represented are tracks that span the band's career: "Powderworks" and "Head Over Heels" appear early in the sequence, while "Beds Are Burning," "The Dead Heart," "Blue Sky Mine," and "Truganini" appear in their respective album positions later in the set. "Redneck Wonderland" and selections from Capricornia close the sequence.
This draft requires fact-checker verification of all track sequencing, EP content, side assignments, and album-to-record correspondence before publication.
