Brown Rice and Kerosine

1981 studio album by Redgum


Brown Rice and Kerosine is the third album by Australian folk-rock group Redgum.[1] The title is taken from the first track, and the album was released around the time Redgum changed from a part-time band to a full-time job for its members.[2]

"100 Years On" was released as a single.[3] As noted on a sticker on the cover, the song "Liberal Values" was to have been included on the album but was removed for legal reasons.[4] It was a parody of Bacharach/David's "(The Man Who Shot) Liberty Valance". In April 2019, a recording of a live performance of "Liberal Values" from 1980 was uploaded to YouTube.[5]

It was originally released as a record and was very briefly available on CD in the late 80s. Some tracks were included on the 2004 collection Against the Grain.
