RNZ Reviews: December 2018

Once a month or so I have a chat on RNZ on their Afternoons show with Jesse Mulligan. These things start – randomly and stop in much the same way. I hope to keep doing this. For a while at least. I think I started in December of 2015, so now nearly three years into  it. Last year I […]

RNZ Music Feature: The Music of George Harrison

I’m usually on RNZ once a month to have a chat about some new albums. But now and then I present features on the show too. Most recently I co-interviewed Steve Gadd! And then, Jesse Mulligan asked me a question – a silly question: Was I the right person to do a feature about George Harrison? […]

RNZ Music Feature: Steve Gadd

I’m usually on RNZ once a month to have a chat about some new albums. But the other day I got the call up to present a Music Feature for the Afternoons show. Well, actually, I was on-air talking about some albums in my regular review slot and I was promoting the back that legendary drummer Steve […]

RNZ Feature: Music-related novels

I’m usually on RNZ once a month to have a chat about some new albums. But the other day I got the call up to present a Music Feature for the Afternoons show. This topic was Music-related novels – books written about music and musicians that are not biographies, not non-fiction. We played some songs and talked about […]

RNZ Reviews: Bob Dylan Gig Review (August, 2018)

Earlier this year I got hooked – all over again – on Bob Dylan. I’m never not hooked on Bob Dylan by the way. I was turned onto his music as a teenager, or maybe at age 12 even. And since then I’ve been a fan. But obviously, when you listen to music obsessively, you can carry a […]
