Been to the Blue Mountains, been to the Studio, been to the House / Estate. It's all rather wonderful, even now. Just enjoy the film and lets not get too heavy. Hate to say it but the Australians do this sort of folky stuff a lot better than the Brits. But then the Brits in position to produce folk included material are not interested. Maybe Sting's work with the Wilsons will open a few doors. We can only hope. |
