1. John Williamson- At Lightning Ridge

You probably don’t listen to a lot of Australian country music, but John Williamson is a great choice if you don’t mind his thick accent. “At Lightning Ridge” is a great ballad about a man who lives life as a recluse- “Don’t ask any questions / Don’t snoop around his claim / He’ll be out with a dog and a shotgun / Who knows what he’s hiding / Or why he makes his stand / Men like him are buried alive / With Opals in their hands.”
