Split Enz, I Hope I Never [Single] (1980) What a song this is! Where did it come from? What does it mean? There’s a story – a rumour, perhaps – about the triggering of this song. I know about that. You probably do too. But what I mean is the inspiration for not only the lyrics, the […]Archive

Schnell-Fenster, Whisper [Single] (1988) I have a very close relationship to this single – not just because I love Schnell-Fenster and of course the album this comes from. But I keep buying and selling this single. I would collect a few 45s, then decide I don’t really want to have singles – so I’d sell up a bunch. Then […]Archive

V/A, Rikky and Pete [OST] (1988) I was chuffed to find this – something I knew about for a while…it’s the soundtrack to a film of the same name (obviously). Have yet to see the film, just this trailer. But I’ll hunt it out. The songs here (mostly) come from Phil Judd, many under the […]Archive

The Vinyl Countdown # 352
Phil Judd, The Swinger (1983) I just recently found this mini-LP, or EP – a 12”er that collects half of the Private Lives album and one extra track; a US release, as I understand it. It’s worth it for the cover alone really. And because it’s Phil Judd. I already have the Rendezvous single (which […]Archive

Schnell Fenster, Ok Alright A Huh Oh Yeah [Single] (1990) You know you’re in deep with a band when you have multiple copies, when you’re collecting across formats…I didn’t think I was one of those people…and I’m still not sure I am…but I guess I am with Schnell Fenster – I’ve just put a copy […]Archive

The Vinyl Countdown # 359
Split Enz, Dizrythmia (1977) This has long been one of my favourite Split Enz albums – to begin with it was simply by virtue of the fact that it contains Bold as Brass and My Mistake – a wonderful opening salvo; they’re two of my favourite Enz songs dating right back to when I was […]Archive

Schnell-Fenster, Love Hate Relationship [Single] (1988) I’m collecting up the Schnell-Fenster singles now; had a couple earlier on and sold them – got them again now. And picking up others. Just an incredible band. And it felt like such a secret to me – back when I discovered this group, and the connections leading to […]Archive

Schnell Fenster, Ok Alright A Huh Oh Yeah [Single] (1990) I loved Schnell Fenster. I love Schnell Fenster still. But discovering them, finding out all about this band – not just Phil Judd but other ex-Split Enz members too – it was just a whole new world, my mind was blown. I was about 10 […]Archive
