Excerpts from internet.listserv.postcard2: 19-Jan-99 RE: Split Enz -
True Colours by "Walker, Jason"@acp.com.
These days Phil Judd is working on film soundtracks and so forth here in
Australia and New Zealand. He was also involved in ENZSO, a project
involving the New Zealan
Split Enz thread on P2 - cool.
Jerry says;
You are recalling an album by the Split Enz entitled _True Colors_.
Contained one of their earliest hits, "I Got You". The origianl US
release was laser etched. That is, if you held it to the light it would
reflect light in a fashion similar to a CD.
If I'm not mistaken "Iris" is from the album after "True Colors"
which was called "Waiata" here in the States and "Corroboree"
elsewhere. Both are great albums by the way.

"Iris" is on _Waiata_. Also called _Corroboree_ (and the reason I
couldn't replace my tape of _Waiata_ - I was looking for the wrong
title). It's this album and _Time and Tide_ that vie for my favorite
Enz discs.
Favorite song? Too tough. "I

I believe
that album also contained my favorite Split Enz song of all - "Iris".
Am I right, Jerry? And do you have that album? The Split Enz
greatest hits cd does not include "Iris", unfortunately.

I saw Crowded House live on MTV some years ago and they did a song that I
didn't recognize. The only lyric I can remember is somthing about "shedding
skin". Since it looks like we have some Finn experts here I thought I would
float it out.
Also anyone know a Louvin Brothers song with the line
I think there's a line about "shed my skin" in the Crowded House song
"Love This Life" from "Temple of Low Men".

Could it be the song below? Possible, as it's only on their greatest hits
cd, so they might have been playing it to promote the cd's release.

Shucks. As long as twang is off the map. Split Enz is great. Crowded House
is great. Now, can someone give me a final (purchase or pass) opinion on
that Neil Finn solo disk?
