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

The Vinyl Countdown # 327
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

The Vinyl Countdown # 341
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

The Vinyl Countdown # 342
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
