    Where I grew up: Gomez's "Get Myself Arrested" - youtu.be/9drameYoMek?feature=s

    I grew up in the same town/time and boy, I knew so many "plastic scallies" who were trying to get themselves arrested.

    Where I live now: "Strange Fish" by Toby Martin - youtu.be/lzhzzkUHGmk?si=4QmjSv

    (A fun mix of trad folk vibes & noise)

    He's Australian but lived in our village for a while and wrote a whole album about the area. This video shows off the landscape: youtu.be/tV9nT9dPjjU?si=byu_Kx

  2. Jupiter Jones
    Kiwifruit

    This is a song I wrote in 1982 just after leaving school at a time when growing #kiwifruit was the latest get rich quick scheme. This song was a slightly satirical look at life (at the time) in #Aotearoa #NewZealand
    This recording is from 2015 and footage from live perfornamce in 2016.

  3. Gutter Black, Hello Sailor. I am pretty sure this was the first album I bought of a New Zealand rock band. Back in those days (1977), I still had a fair amount of "cultural cringe" about New Zealand music. Thankfully those days are long in the past.
