An excellent and concise overview from what is arguably one of New Zealand's greatest pop bands, reissued to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the band (well actually it's the 30th Anniversary of their first show - 10th December '72). Containing seventeen tracks, each one etched in the memory of any kiwi music fan, this is one of those "all killer no filler" compilations. Genuinely a great band, who seem to grow in stature with time, Split Enz, and particularly the brothers Finn, changed the shape and sound of original pop music in this country forever. An essential purchase for anyone with a gaping Split Enz hole in their New Zealand music collection, or simply for those who enjoy vibrant original pop music. Recommended. Accompanying DVD now available. |
