'Deportees' – Mick Thomas covering the classic Woody Guthrie song, adding a topical verse of his own. I can't find this version online, although I have it, and was privileged to hear him perform it on tour a few years back.

Great playlist! Here’s a few more from the Australian Music Vault ‘Agents of Change’ playlist. https://open.spotify.com/user/tenmigaht7yr60blhlupg58g4/playlist/7hCsupuoRGAX1ylwUUgWvg?si=0xU99FmQTSqm2HCo1GW4jQ

Jim “Armstrong” John Stewart Also sung by Australian Reg Lindsay

Jim. Amazing set list from the BRB tonight. Loved tin legs. And everything else, some songs are just extra special though. I know that’s off topic but you guys topped off an amazing three days of music. Didn’t see a bad act. The version of treaty with Busby Maru was delightful. See you in Brisbane 2/8/19 with the pub choir and family dog.

Been listening to it at work. I’m loving the playlist!! Two additional suggestions: Marvin Gaye: Mercy Mercy Me and What’s Going On.

My favs in the list: Revolution, War, Strange Fruit, Thou Shalt Not Steal, Eve of Destruction, I Am Women, This Land is Your Land, Fight The Power, Desolation Row, From Little Things, Gottta Serve Somebody, Fortunate Son, Get Up Stand Up, Give Peace a Chance, Won't Get Fooled Again, Respect, Holiday in Cambodia, War Pigs, Guns of Brixton, Eton Rifles, Something in the Air, Solid Rock, Blackfella/Whitefella, I Was Only 19, God Save the Queen, Generals and Majors..no way...(what we need is a...)Melting Pot! Sunday Bloody Sunday, Masters of War, Children of the Revolution, Talkin' Bout a Revolution, We have Survived, Treaty, In the Ghetto, Russians, Don't Tear it Down, Two Tribes, Rockin in the Free World, Rock the Casbah, Ghost Town, We Shall Overcome....shows how many powerful tunes are out there that shape us :-o

How about some Neil Murray with Sammy Butcher. Great new album from one of Australia's finest! Plus a certain MO shredder!

'Hope Street' – The Levellers, also covered by Billy Bragg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDjdHe6U3Mo

Father Ted is one of the best sitcoms ever made. I hope there is a techno remix of Ted and Dougal saying those lines. "Careful now" *DJ scratch* "Down With This Sort Of Thing" *Huge drop*.

Really solid list of songs there Jim!

Great list. I would add the Call’s The Walls Came Down and Bruce Cockburn’s If I Had A Rocket Launcher.

Jim Cuyahoga REM I’ll talk to Micheal re a Co - Headline world tour with the Oils You guys decide where to donate the “loot” Two of the most trustworthy bands going around

Alabama, Southern Man, pretty much the entirety of Living With War or The Monsanto Years all by Neil Young.

'Sisters of Mercy' – Weddings Parties Anything

Father Ted!

That would be an ecumenical matter.

https://youtu.be/FkHCaH-rt5M A classic of its time 😉

This is not America (Bowie/Metheny)

Lol Father Ted!

wheres spider baby?

Cows with guns

https://youtu.be/whYwsIJaSlE

Neil Young’s Alabama. And sinead’s blackboys on mopeds

I'll just leave this here. 😁 https://open.spotify.com/track/0pBkDGUza19ANRGHkCPDb1?si=rsteOIJSSjGnspnKgEXRJg

Gary Clark, Jr's 'This Land' is incredibly relevant and powerful. https://open.spotify.com/track/0Jxl1PdSbiQPYRPVdzBdES?si=nDKkZO2XR9aaSb1dDn0IjQ

So happy to see that the Only 19 is the Herd mix with John Schuman....showing the everlasting relevance

Nice one. While not a protest song I often like to put on Crowded House “Transit Lounge” while waiting in the Qantas lounge

I think the two most trenchant anti-war sons ever written are The Bravery of Being Out of Range by Roger Waters and War Pigs by Black Sabbath. The cowardice of war makers very bitterly exposed in both. Also would be good to see The Phillip Ruddock Blues by This is Serious Mum added. A fine unpicking of the viciousness of neo-liberal conservatism in Australia.

It's a great mix! It lacks “Scatterlings of Africa“ or have I overseen it ?

Great to see some Billy Bragg on there. I’ve always thought Help Save the Youth of America was pretty strong. Also Waax FU and Thelma Plumb Better in Blak are strong new releases and great examples of a new loud female voice coming through.

Thanks for adding New Model Army :)!

War Plan Red , Peter Perrett.. brilliant album too

Spy vs Spy, Don’t Tear it down, Sallie Anne

Ben Harper’s ‘Excuse Me Mr’, and ‘Fight For Your Mind’

Billy Bragg got a good run but I’d have included “It Says Here” too

Comfortably numb is a protest song?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSre2vvKNbE

Been loving the intro tape playlist Jim, some great tracks and some surprises, New Model Army fantastic! Didnt know they were on your radar. May in suggest some Blyth Power to you :)

WOW, quite a selection!!! Many to discover. Cannot hear preview though..yet?

Great list! Following.

Nice! Thanks for sharing.

Awesome list. How about Johnny Clegg (R.I.P.) “One (Hu)man One Vote and Bruce Cockburn’s “Trouble With Normal” or If I Had a Rocket Launcher

That pic Jim, are those Weiwei’s sunflower seeds on the floor?

Hmm, I did not see anything from Midnight Oil.

Wow

Tin soldiers , stiff little fingers 👍😊

Hopefully we will hear “The times they are changing” and hopefully in the right direction.. A change to acceptance and embracing difference.

Strange times we are having here in the US. It's embarrassing.

And the man ON ecstacy will wan't to hug everyone.

With a gun, any man will throw up his arms

We are currently being led by someone who is probably the tiniest man in the world. This is indicative of a deep sickness. In a years time we will discover if America has grown

Thanks for all the gigs! Watching you doing some jumps during the songs was such a joy- you had so much fun. And we had fun too! Safe travels to Birdsville!

Living at the opposite side of the planet I never knew anything about the Tarkine rainforest. Now I do. What a wonderful poetry and beautiful tunes this marvellous song contains! We hope it will help to preserve this unique area. Thank you for that and for your musical ride through Western Europe. It was a great pleasure for us to welcome you to Trier and Mainz, both shows were absolutely hot. Hope to see you back here soon again. All the very best to you, keep on rocking. 🔥🔥🔥

Sorry to say I've been ignorant to her work.. That's going to change!

Fuck Trump!

Fantastic playlist. Thanks for sharing Jim. Great to see XTC Generals and Majors.... Melt the Guns is another poignant one of theirs

Great list. I would add: Requiem for the Masses—The Association If I Had a Rocket Launcher—Bruce Cockburn Maman—Mata Hari cast album The Assistant Undersecretary of State for Human Rights—Rap Master Ronnie cast album Zombie—The Cranberries I Ain't Marchin' Anymore—Phil Ochs

Nice to see The Kinks included too! 👍

Love to see RATM, SOAD, and Dropkick Murphys in there! New Model Army are a serious omission, though!

Always an education JM of MO & OZ

What a top playlist! No Oils? No Xavier Rudd? 😊

Gary Bagwell Greg Truman Terry McGlinchey

Missing Europe already jim?

Only missing That's in Queensland by Denis Carnahan. sorry lol

Comfortably numb?

Killing Time Celibate Rifles

Can't wait!

Come back to the UK jim and bring the 🐕 dog! We’d love to see you!!!

Looking forward to another night with the family dog.

Good Dog

Sing powdies sing La la la la la lu sing sing a song

Seeya there :)

That's a mighty fine crowd of people...looks like it was an awesome gig. Hope you got to try some of the Provincial culinary delights.

An unforgettable performance. Pete danced and fell like the old days

PLEASE keep your musical train rolling! We need you now more than ever.

Foodie heaven. Did you get up the top to the cathedral?

Hi Jim Moginie, It was a huge performance, thanks guys for the show. See you on the next tour. Keep on being awsome

Looks so cool. Wish they could have had a complete set. Sucks for the fans and you guys.

Great shot Jim

Please, Barcelona for the next tour! 😉

You are living the life

You should try Glasgow mate.

Leaving the toms at home helps for sure

I played drums in school bands and held the sticks a bit like that. I peaked then!

Luv the T shirt!

Nice. You all should record as a hootenanny, You on Drums, Rob on Guitar, Martin on Bass, Peter on Keyboard, Bones on Guitar.

Yeah. I tried singing and drumming together once. It did not go well.

Solid advice 👍🏻

Best not. Leave it to the expert!!! 😂

It's all about feel and groove, just ask McCartney

Does rob know your playing with his drum kit Jim?

You could make music with your toothbrush Mr Mogenius

Hey nice try tho. I recognise that snare too.

I’m the opposite. I’m a guitar playing drummer and have to do the same

holding the sticks , military drummer style ?!? Yeah !! It's a LONG way to Birdsville .. 😁👍🏾

Funny looking Rob Hirst

Be Phil Rudd.

Ba boom Tisch!

For frack sake Jim

Jim the gunzel 👍 When you get back to Sydney I can take you for a ride up front if you want.

Very Very Very Very Fast Twain !!

And I thought this was a post from one of my train groups... nice looking train. So glad many people are getting to enjoy your live music again, and hope that I get to do so again. Hope you’re also finding some down time, too 🙂

No, keep it up Jim! Loving it.

But is it a garratt 6029 up front !?

Direction France 🇫🇷 ?

TEE

Nope!

Get a window seat yjimb!"

We all love the Uluru Statement backdrop so much. What happens to it after the tour?

You guys so rock!!! Thank you for doing it again...and still!!

I love that you still find it "fun" Jim Moginie! :)

Boy I wish I was there

Can it possibly sound even better than it looks !!

Reminds me of this photo I took. Shadow pals. Dog shadow needs a tree shadow!

You have my kind of photographer's eye.

I've still got a "Three Dog Night" Album,from the Early 70's, which is where my mind went to, as soon as I read that. HaHa! Thanks for Reminding me of it! 🎼🐶🐕🐩

Took me a while...

Are those metal sidewalks, or possibly something for catching any run off, maybe there is a sewer system below. Either way it's something I've never seen before.

...I think I'll apply that into acrylic...interesting...

The shadow is black,the pavement is white

'it's a tree Dawg night , today .. If you listen hard enough ... ' 😎😜

groan

Whats doing there?

Here a mire was a full bog ...

Brickyard Bruise?

Nice juxtaposition. Lenbachhaus? I'd also recommend Pinakothek der Moderne nearby.
