Great kiwiana music nostalgia
Terrific doco - we (Schtung) owed a lot to the Enz, they paved the way. Happy memories of their Wellington visits, Phil dropping by our house on The Crescent, lunch at The Matterhorn in Cuba St. chatting about 'these Supertramp guys'.
Neil has never not been adorable. The world was never gonna keep a guy like him down.
Loved Schnell Fenster too. Viva Phil!

The Enz, The Swingers and The Fensters have always been in my top ten kiwi bands. Guess that makes me a Phil fan by osmosis alone. :)
It aint what you dance is a great song.
Nice story! Good job, Finn Bros.!
I'm from Liverpool England and love most progressive rock and have to say that I've just got on the mental notes album and think it kicks ass, best song is spellbound, the singing is like family and the guitar and bass line is very similar to what floyd were doing on animals
I loved the Swingers, and loved the songs. I also thought Phil's voice had amazing range and was completely unique. I remember a longer doco on the Swingers that used to be on KZread, although in bad quality. Would love to see it again.

I recall the video in question. It was something the “The Making of Practical Jokers”. I wonder what has happened to it?
Great doco...all three parts.
So this has made me feel very blessed and safe
Excellent documentary!
Amazing, was unaware of all the links between the guys in these bands, plus another fave band...
Looks like Youth at 12:28 that crazy mutha, lol. There's something about smallish island's that create's unique artist's and music, UK, Jamaica (as Neil said) and NZ , not Australia though that's too big ! Great to watch vid thanks Mr.Phudd.
that footage of the bowl of brooklands is great around the 5 min mark. New Plymouth!
Thanx, Phil for all that you are - thanx for sharing this!
Been to Kara Kara in my dreams....maybe one day in my life as well....Cheers All
ThNk you for this beautiful journey
Great little doco!!!
Nice Rickenbacker
"Like I'd had an affair and broken the magic circle." That's exactly what happened with the Strokes. Something definitely breaks when one goes off and records a solo.
paulo!
Not so sure about the Travis Bean bass..
Andrew McClennan was mentioned. Any relation to Grant?

Andrew's from New Zealand whereas Grant's from Queensland. I'd be surprised.
Bones is playin a Kramer aluminum neck bass...people loved those for a minute in the 80s...I think they sound like crap and the neck is so heavy you let go of the neck and it dives to the ground:-(
