Hola surfers of the information super highway!

We hope you're keeping cool and well during this extreme heat.  Be sure to keep yourselves well hydrated!

A sort of tribute to the late Rob Hirst, drummer of legendary Australian band Midnight Oil, who passed away on the 20th January 2026.   I grew up with Midnight Oil in the 1980's and enjoyed many a concert during my teenage years.  My first Oils album was 1983's 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 which I have unfortunately misplaced......my Oils records collection ends at 1985's Species Deceases and I'm not sure why I stopped buying their records.  I dusted off the vinyl  and throughout this morning's shamozzle of a show I dropped the needle on the following tracks:

Surfing With A Spoon from 1978's Midnight Oil

Stand In Line from 1979's Head Injuries

No Time For Games and Wedding Cake Island from 1980's Bird Noises EP

Lucky Country from 1981's Place Without A Postcard

Kosciusko from 1984's Red Sails In The Sunset
