They never die

On dark cold nights when the wind is howling and the drizzle seeps slowly into the untreated timber of your leaky home ... it is then that the dormant threads reanimate ... and in the background a lone banjo plays...

Regarding Monteith's and NZ bands, I remember back in '93 when the 3Ds were recording The Venus Trail at Dominic Stones' big flat (an old, ex-Masonic temple) in downtown Dunedin and they stocked up on so much Monteith's there was literally none available in the central city bottle stores.

The banjo gets a bad name from its association with 'rural trash' and inbreeding stereotypes, but it can be a lovely instrument. The Eastern, a Lyttleton based pair play a good banjo, but they're a bit 'more rock' than David's EP.

Hey I was actually writing while listening to it! So speak for your own CRI :P

Well I was in the lab...does that count??

At risk of being shouted down by those who know much more about music than I, to me there is something of They Might be Giants in the music as well.

No conscious influence, but I'm a big TMBG fan…

Downloaded and enjoyed. Thank you David... and Blair of course... and I suppose Russell should be thanked for delivery of the lubricant that made it happen.
Cheers.

One…

Nice David. The banjo gets a bad name from its association with 'rural trash' and inbreeding stereotypes,

So... you've heard him play before then?.
;-)

(and some fools say white NZ has no culture?!)

The first second of Unlight the Candles sounds just like For the Turnstiles.

David, if you've never come across this album, you must.

Nice David. The banjo gets a bad name from its association with 'rural trash' and inbreeding stereotypes, but it can be a lovely instrument.

Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers on Letterman earlier in the year, playing one of Steve's own compositions:

Copied and Copyright Cheque is in the mail. Have pirated 10,000 copies to distribute around the planet. Will buy you a beer.

Is that this new "digital economy" thing I keep hearing about?

The banjo gets a bad name from its association with 'rural trash' and inbreeding stereotypes, but it can be a lovely instrument. The Eastern, a Lyttleton based pair play a good banjo, but they're a bit 'more rock' than David's EP.

I vote Russell sends you more beer…

Now of course you will have to bring your banjo to Auckland!

At risk of being shouted down by those who know much more about music than I, to me there is something of They Might be Giants in the music as well. I guess it's…
