Magical......great band, great performance. ....oh to have been there in the flesh. What a privilege that would've been. Mesmerising.....The Oils were a big part of my formative years. Shame how it all faded away for them, oh well.

One of my favorite songs by them. You really need to follow them to know songs like this. I have been following them since I saw them on Alan Thicke`s talk show "Thicke of the Night " in 84'.

PG was such a physical performer. Unique combination of art, intellect and physicality.

It's about how Sharman exploited Aboriginal boxers in his traveling boxing troupe. Didn't matter who won or lost, it was only about beating each other up, sometimes day after day. It went out of business in '71 when the law stated boxers could only fight once a week.

Does anyone know who Jimmy Sharmans boxers actually were?? Part of a bygone and brutal era of rural entertainment......

if only we took more seriously the words in this song, its so powerful, 'why are we fighting for this........' Petes passion is amazing, the brutal truth of war and fighting is so demonstrated in this song, the oils forever
