Top 5 Musicals Produced By the Oil Industry
Ah, the oil industry. While most people are resigned to the knowledge
that large petroleum manufacturers are at least partly to blame when it
comes to destroying Third World infrastructures, propping up meritless
dictators, or encouraging blind consumerism in the face of an
environmentally poisoned and diseased future ? the question I often ask
is 'What about the music'?
And while they are fiendishly scarce, the oil industry, like many other
bastions of capitalism, indeed produced a number of privately pressed,
in-house motivational musicals, and several squeaked out on LP (for
employees only, of course). They're known as industrial shows: lavish
stage productions that serve to entertain, educate, and encourage
employees to do their job with gusto.
