It's the only Oils album I've got on vinyl, the rest are on CD. Must check the charity shops again.....
We have Pete Garrett's double on the forum as well, a better singer than politician from my occasional reading of Australian news sites...
I've adopted Diesel and Dust as the 'theme album' of my planned ride across Western Australia in a couple of years time - kind of apt, since I'll be visiting some of the places mentioned on the album (including the Gunbarrel Highway

1 - Riding on sand is hard. Training for desert riding in the UK is even harder
