Top five for Forget the Past

Elsewhere has chosen Forget the Past as one of the five faves, and in great company too.

"What a remarkable year it has been so far in New Zealand music: bristling pop-rock from Clap Clap Riot, Grayson Gilmour's multi-layered album, singer-songwriter Greg Fleming stretching himself in various directions  . . .

In fact, and this is a first at Elsewhere, this week all the albums under our Favourite Five Recent CDs come from New Zealand artists.

And now this excellent entry from Liam Finn, one of the sons of a senior statesman whose most recent album Dizzy Heights is among that favourites list."
