The simplicity of a genius. Neil has a very «singer/songwriter» approach to guitar, something I really can relate to. All gear, sound and guitars are there to serve the song. Liam and his board is much more about indulging oneself and doing wacky «pedal-things». Which, let’s face it, is what TPS is all about too. So funny to see Mitchell Froom in the background, minding his own business and just getting on with it. One of the greatest producers around. Besides producing Crowded House he’s also produced the likes of Richard Thompson. Another hero of all of us, I bet. Great episode. Thanks lads!

Amazing, beautiful. Great job guys. Classic down to earth and humble Kiwis. I grew up in NZ listening to Split Enz, Crowded House etc. Part of my life sound track. Love all the Finns music including Tim as well. Roundhead studio is a great place to visit and work in as well. Often Neil has some of his collection of guitars on hand and they are available to use which is pretty awesome! Though when I was there a few years back most of his gear was out wth Fleetwood Mac.
@mortonwilson7952 жыл бұрын
What a treat! I smiled immediately when I saw Neil's vintage Hot Cake - I (along with pretty much every guitarist in NZ in the 70's) had one on the floor. I recently reconnected with Paul and he shot me a Double Hotcake (my old one got lost or 'borrowed' somewhere along the line). Having those 3 different sounds available is really something. I have followed Neil's music since the early days when he opened for the Enz mid-70's in Wellington - his solo vocal and acoustic guitar set was amazing . . . He and Tim have contributed so much to NZ music, certainly an inspiration for us in Schtung when we started out! Thanks to all concerned for such a cool in-depth look at the gear . . . Magnatone for Xmas, then !!! :)

Best video I've seen in a while. Neil Finn is a genius. IMHO, it won't be long before he's up for a knighthood. In my experience if you like Crowded House, you like Squeeze and vice versa, so Dan, if you're not familiar with Squeeze, it's about time you were. I've seen Neil play with Johnny Marr and Roddy Frame, about 20-something years back. My dream would be to see him do a collaboration with Difford & Tilbrook. The mention of the Sydney Opera House Farewell gig, brings back memories of Paul Hester...

I've been a fan of NF's music ever since I saw the video for "I Got You" back in the early 80's. He's my favorite songwriter too, and his personality is so genuine and down to earth. I'd love to meet him someday. So glad to see CH continuing on, I think with the addition of Liam, Elroy and Mitchell, that the band is in good hands for as long as they want to go with it. It's a really good lineup and is possibly the best at playing the songs with every detail as was on the records. Hoping to see them back in the USA this year!

Kudos fellas - enjoy every show - this one is a high mark. I would add that in addition to the beautiful guitar work on Crowded House records - anyone interested should check out Split Enz 20th Anniversary Live recordings circa 1992-1993 release. It features Neil's guitar prominently in the mix with stellar performances and great tone. He's generally so busy on every aspect other than guitar it is very rare to find a discussion of such an important part of his music. I think we missed the Mud Honey I could be wrong will go back and check - superb job and cheers.
