- Rare MIdnight Oil live performance - Stand In Line. Recorded at The Last Double Jay Concert, Parramatta Park. Concert in 1980 celebrated the change from Double- Jay-AM to Triple Jay-FM This is the original live-to-air stereo mix using ABC mobile van - the old Neve mixer, connected via land-line back to Triple Jay studio. Enjoy!
This is a gift. I was 17 years old when I saw this show -- 54 now. And I am seeing them in NYC, May 13, 2017!
I was 16, had my first acid trip there!
Amazing bass from Peter Gifford. They weren't the same without it.
This is the best live version of Stand in line…
It’s only taken me 41 years to hear the best version of this song ever. Thank you!
Fk me... Theres something so sporadic...... soooo good.... And Keith tracking Behind the Desk for this mixdown....... Bam....
This version is on the flip side of the Armistice Day EP
Midnight Oil, one of the most underrated bands of all time!
You can hear why they got Peter Gifford in this band!T he definitive version of the song right here. After he left the oils became melodic and evolved etc. but to me the period 78-85 was their very best.
Gifford wasn't in the band when they made the first two albums. That was Andrew James. James played on the studio version of this song on Head Injuries and arranged the bass line with input from the guitarists.
Yep true.
Nevertheless it is an amazing performance. I was lucky enough to see Andrew James a few times and he was great to watch. I love the bass on the first two albums.
Smashing bloody corker of a version!!!Is that your reel for real??Whats your connection with the oils good sir??
Giff is why I’m a bass player. That riff 😮
That is quite possibly the filthiest guitar solo ever. Moginie's guitar sound from back then is like no other. It's hard to put into words just how bloody good they were back then. The energy of their performance is like sticking your finger in a light socket
When I first heard Pearl Jam, I thought they had copied their guitar sound from the Oils. Only band I think that came close.
This song has so much drive. It's just crazy. I'm exhausted just listening to it.
Also it's a very clean mix for a live recording.
Damn straight! Its sooo good! That version is up there in my top 10 favourite songs.
@@NUDEBOMBER Oils on the water, stand in line, they kill it in that, and Jimmy is the genius of this band!
It is ferocious. To me its main competition for filthiest guitar solo would be something from The Drones on The Miller's Daughter or The City.
Peter Gifford sounds amazing! Even though they're not his Bass lines, he made sure (as usual) that they really stood out in this live recording.
Giffo on fire. I played this for my bass... Now it sulking in the corner and wont speak to me 😎
Got to see & hear "Stand in Line" played live for the last time in SA - at the AEC in late March 2022. I was in the second row from the front. I felt 19 again... instead of 61 going on 62. I thrashed this version on my old stereo as it was the B-side to the "Armistice Day" 12-inch single. Just the fn best 😀
So much of even our pretty recent cultural history has been lost. Thank you, Keith for being such a pro and having kept these "relics" around for as long as you have. Even via the Interwebs, the analogue phatness (as the young people would say) is evident.
I had this on the B side of the Armistice Day Cassingle...but lost it (spewing!). Good to listen to it again hear. Cheers!
Thanks, i was trying to remember what album thing i had this version on.
Damn! In 2022, they are brilliant and hard. But this is so intense, it's frightening! Damn! Amazing recording!
Awesome sound.
Jimmy Mogine was the genius behind this band!
This is the best version of this song!
I just worked camera at WOMAD in Adelaide, Australia last weekend. The Oils performed there. Such a trip down memory lane for me. I couldn't believe that they actually dropped 'Stand In Line' off the set list the day before the gig. Arrgghhh!!!
KW... YOU Legend...Thank you!
What a Band. What a Performance. What a Mix.What an outcome.
I've had to come back and listen again - this really is fantastic!
What a song and memory.
Midnight Oil-How I miss Those Aussie Rogues! Back when Rock actually mattered for once. Stand in Line Rocks! How I miss those halcyon days...They will never be forgotten!
Keith Walker you’re mixes were always so tight. Regards Robbo ex channel Nine. Just the best.
Keith...the last Double Jay concert held in 1981. It marked the day in 1981 when the AM transmissions ceased, and 2JJJ became an FM only station.
Yes Ken, Band would have listened a few years back.. I've had the quarter inch 15ips version for years.. Thought I should do something so others could hear it. I'll put up a higher res version soon - higher bit rate and HD Pics. Present version on UA-cam is AAC 160Kbs - thats pretty good!
Man, looking at the VU's on the Tascam, It really IS playing back the recording you made! Respect!!!
Thank you all for your kind remarks 😎
Keith Walker This is awesome but should be labeled 1981.
One word = GIFFO !
FOUND IT AT LAST!!! fuck i've been trying to find this version for a long fucking time!!! Had it on an old bootleg cassette about 30 years ago but it got lost. It had Stop the Drop concert written on it, but it was wrong! This has made my day 👍👍👍
Been available on iTunes Store (in Australia, at least) for several years. First track on the Punter Barrier BPM (Live) album.
This IS Midnight Oil! thanks for uploading
The concert Date was January 18th 1981
Not 1980
I was there at 15 years of age
Was a stinking hot day
Midnight oil headed the line up of what was billed the 2jj last concert Parramatta Park
The other bands that played before midnight oil were
Mondo Rock ,Radiators,Matt Finish,Moving Pictures ,Machinations
The smell of pot filled the air,girls walking around in bikinis ,a beer in everyone’s hand
And all those bands for
free !
Ahhh the memories
Will never forget …
When Australia was !
GOD, I WENT OFF TO THIS SONG...
Wonderful!!! Thanks for sharing :)
I went to this gig. What a fantastic day. Back in the days when music had some backbone. I recorded the Oil's set when it was replayed on radio, but lost the tape. Thank's keithatmac for bringing back some great memories.
Big thank you Keith....to capture this one live is a treasure...powerful, big riff and committed!!!
Hi Ozzie, Many thanks for your kind thoughts. I agree they were great days - some of my best memories.. THanks, K x
Mr walker u champion great rec
Thank you - wished I had more. I recorded the the gig for Triple Jay in 1980. The concert in Parramatta Park, was celebrating the change from AM to FM. Another great set from the gig was Ross Wilson/Mondo Rock - wished I had a copy. ABC Radio should have it in their archives somewhere.
Fantastic job as usual Keith, this is exceptionally good. It was a great day, what a band they were. The Mondos were as you say fantastic as well. Great memories.
Great job Keith. This was a great show to see live so thanks for the great memories.
absolute favourite
Great Keith. I'd love to hear this on my MCI JH-110.
Giffo!!
Awesome performance and I was there on the day. This gave me goosebumps. Of course the date is slightly off, it was January 1981. Do you have any of Matt Finish on the day?
Yeah... the release of the Armistice Day, stand in Line single has the date as 18 Jan 1981.
Brilliant Keith !
That bass ! Giffo
more !!!!!!!!!
Thx Meredith. Long time ago. All the Best, Keith 😎
Astonishing.
Thanks Keith :)
Brillilant, thanks for sharing Keith (we did record many moons ago as part of the band of the week Beatbox - thanks for your help and good work then :-) )
Great recording.
Punk rock me off!
I went to this .. didn't realise at the time it was the last JJ concert. Mind you I didn't realise much at all I was so off my face! I still remember the intro to 'No time for Games' it was so distorted and there was almost a gale force wind blowing
it was a great day
Brillent
Superb, many thanks for taking the time to produce and share this! if you found time to share more of this gig, I'm sure many would be delighted. they didn't happen to play 'Bus to bondi', did they?
Ready to welcme the oils hme in nov oh yehhhh
This version is on the flip side of the Armistice Day EP
Sounds great Keith :-) Cheers! Meredith
It was 1981😄
sent through all that expensive gear and transcoded down to a compressed AAC youtube file. 😁
was this the version of Stand in Line that (I think) was the B-side of the Armistice Day 12 inch single?
Yes!
nice recording mate!
I wonder if this gig was ever recorded on video ??
I'll see ya later....
I do believe I had a small chubb!!
Midnight wars on UA-cam more if Midnight oil look me
😂
Stopped liking these guys when Garret became a useless Labour minister. Pretentious twat
Good. He doesn't even know you exist. Gonski is not useless, well until the Libs butchered it.
