A late reply, as always.... this is perhaps the best selection of music in a PA column this year. Since I don't have access to the radio in the same way (and the tubes are charged hourly here), I've been relying on the taste of others more than ever; especially…

keep a song in yer heart...
Don McGlashan’s uplifting but also politically barbed speech. An important message at this time.
Way to go Don...
I liked this bit:
When songs work, they put down roots deep into culture. If someone from the next century wanted to know what life was…

Stephanie singing Everything To Me live and stripped back on tvnz's CloseUp (6 mins, including pesky lashings of Hosking inanity). Hook had me in its spell when I woke – beautiful work, maam.

I did go to the Apra event and aside from some fine interpretations, a high point was Don McGlashan's uplifting but also politically barbed speech. An important message at this time. With his permission I have put it up at Elsewhere: http://www.elsewhere.co.nz/othervoicesotherrooms/

The Kora tribute is class – and fittingly so.

thanks Russell.

Yes, 44 comments since 2007 – lets just say I read more than I write here.

Anyway, I’m still making music and there’s a couple of preview tracks from the Golden Curtain album here if anyone’s interested

Nice.

And nice to know we have two former members of Garageland commenting here :-)

I used to love the Silver scrolls nights but I don't get invited anymore, despite being a finalist twice. I don't remember doing anything to get me banned but the alcohol was free and i was young. I do remember it being a fun night though and i watched some…

Aww man, I love the Silver Scrolls. It's the best local musical event of the year – no media, no fuss, just music folks.

I get to hang around with 35 years of good friends and talk silly stuff, get a bit misty, a bit pissed and, well.....

Last night,…

On the new Orb/Lee Scratch Perry album, there's a track that starts with the words "What were the skies like when you were young, Lee Scratch Perry?"

Cool. Love it when I've heard a track and not known it's from here. In some way.
