 Hole In The Ice (Live)/Try Whistling This (Live)/Distant Sun (Live)



Neil Mullane Finn OBE (born 27 May 1958) is a New Zealand recording artist. Along with his brother Tim Finn, he was the co-frontman for Split Enz and is now frontman for Crowded House. He has also recorded several successful solo albums and assembled diverse musicians for the 7 Worlds Collide projects.

Finn rose to prominence in the late 1970s after replacing singer songwriter Phil Judd in his brother Tim Finn's band Split Enz. With the group, Finn wrote the hits "One Step Ahead", "History Never Repeats", "I Got You" and "Message to My Girl", among others. Finn rose from prominence to international fame after Split Enz broke up in 1984. While his brother Tim Finn left for England, Neil was the founder of Crowded House with Split Enz's final drummer Paul Hester in 1985. The group achieved international success in 1987 when they released the single "Don't Dream It's Over" written by Neil.

He ended Crowded House in 1996 to embark upon what was to become a moderately successful solo career, and has released two albums with his brother Tim under the title the Finn Brothers. In 2006, following the death of Hester, Finn reformed Crowded House (adding Beck's former drummer Matt Sherrod) and released their first studio album in over 13 years, Time on Earth, and the band began a world tour. In 2010, Finn commenced another world tour with Crowded House in support of their 2010 release, Intriguer.

Masters Apprentices - Nickelodeon

 Future Of Your Nation/Evil Woman/Because I Love You/Light A Fire Within Yourself/When I've Got Your Soul/Fresh Air By The Ton


After a stint in the UK where they recorded "Choice Cuts" the Master's were almost completely broke and decided to return to Australia to refill the coffers they began their national tour in Perth and Howard Gable joined them with portable four-track equipment and recorded their first show at the Nickelodeon Theatre. The band was tired and under-rehearsed, and were not satisfied with the results. These recordings became the live LP Nickelodeon, believed to be the second live rock album recorded in Australia. One of its tracks the brooding "Future of Our Nation" and the non-album cut "New Day" were put out as a single in June 1971 it managed to chart in the lower reaches of the charts Go-Set placed it at #51 and the Kent Music Charts put it at #56.

The Master's themselves may have been dissapointed with the results but I still find it a highly satifying album to listen to, one of the pluses is that all the tracks bar "Because I Love You" only appeared on this album.
