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 # 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 # 366
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

Phil Judd: UniQue
Phil Judd UniQue (Independent/philjudd.com) Buried deep down toward the end of Phil Judd’s new album are three of his finest songs. I say that knowing full well that he is the writing genius behind Late Last Night, Sweet Dreams, Counting The Beat and dozens of other songs. Phil Judd soundtracked a big part of my […]Archive
