This is the essential Tim Finn record. If you only buy one...this is it. Great songs from "How'm I Gonna Sleep" to "Parihaka" this is a very romantic, hopeful record, full of melody...He is in fine voice. With Neil providing some of the backup vocals, the brothers are in perfect harmony.

This is a real little gem of an album, a great little collection of melodic songs, that have the intimacy and sense of place that often hallmarks Kiwi acts, lots of little stories told in catchy melodies. I agree that this is easily the most even of Tims' outputs, and possibly even Neils' as well. You can see that Tim experimented with different sounds with Escapade and Big Canoe but this album is probably closest to the "Woodface" era Crowded House. I would really strongly recommend this album to fans of Crowded House.

This is a real gem. Tim joins the likes of bass player Tony Levin
and producer Michael Froom to record an album that is unlike anything I've heard. There are some moments of earth-shattering beauty within the ballads, some very NZ guitar/vocals and even a ballad which sounds like the best song Phil Collins never wrote.
Also nice to hear Neil Finn singing back-up vocals. Recommended.
