The Vinyl Countdown # 143
Schnell Fenster, The Sound of Trees (1988) Do you own more than one copy of any album in your collection? I got rid of most of my double-ups recently. Didn’t feel the need to keep more than one copy of any album in my collection – apart from the first Schnell Fenster record. I now […]Archive

The Vinyl Countdown # 284
The Swingers, One Good Reason [Single] (1979/1980) I’ve taken to TradeMe and scouring the bins as my Phil Judd research/quest continues and with The Swingers I’m hoping to get all five singles. They’re out there. At least as far as I know. I have a couple anyway. Now I have this – which is great because One Good Reason is a great song, the band’s […]Archive

The Vinyl Countdown # 291
The Swingers, It Ain’t What You Dance, It’s The Way You Dance It [Single] (1981) I remember it being such a revelation to find out that the Swingers did more than just Counting The Beat. By which I mean simply that I was young when that was a hit – I loved that song, and still do – but it was about finding the […]Archive

RNZ Reviews: April 2019
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 four years into it or so… This […]Archive

The Vinyl Countdown # 314
Split Enz, Frenzy (1979) I’m so into the Split Enz catalogue – the need to collect it all, that some of the albums I have several copies of, others I’m still hoping to collect – I won’t go about trying to get all the different pressings/editions – I’m not like that – but I don’t mind buying another copy […]Archive

Phil Judd: Flightless Bird
Phil Judd Flightless Bird (Independent/Bandcamp) For the last decade and a half Phil Judd’s musical voice has been sneaking out into the world via a handful of idiosyncratic solo releases – you know that voice, instantly. And vocally there’s still every power in it, reminders of all that was always great. There are musical motifs – and the […]Archive
