Truly exceptional, December 9, 2001
This review is from: 7 Words Collide: Live at the St. James (Audio CD)
Neil Finn is one of New Zealand's most talented singer/songwriters. This CD is produced from his live show's 'Neil Finn and Friends' in Auckland earlier this year. Neil's friends include: his brother Tim (another exceptional singer/songwriter); Eddie Vedder; Lisa Germano; Johnny Marr; Sebastian Steinberg and others. Listening to the CD, and being at the concert, made you think that these guys had been playing together for years. A slick professional performance from the whole group. It seemed like second nature to them, like they just belong together.
'I See Red' has been a favourite of mine since it first came out, and having Eddie Vedder singing it adds another powerful dimension to the song. Particular favourites on the CD include I See Red, Weather With You, Wherever You Are, Don't Dream It's Over and She Will Have Her Way.
Like the 'Together In Concert' CD from the New Zealand wide concerts of Tim Finn, Dave Dobbyn and Bic Runga, the 7 Worlds Collide is there to bring back wonderful memories for those of us that were fortunate enough to attend, and bring the enjoyment of Neil Finn's music to those that couldn't.
Listen and enjoy the CD. You won't regret it - it's truly exceptional.

Extraordinary songwriter. Everyone does a great job in their part in this concert. One of my favorite cd's to listen to now. A must own.
