NEIL FINN "dizzy heights" cd, 2014

this album: #5 NZ, #6 AU, #22 UK

single releases from album:

"divebomber"....................did not chart anywhere
"dizzy heights"..................did not chart anywhere
"lights of new york"...........did not chart anywhere
"flying in the face of love"...did not chart anywhere

another of the xmas giftcard purchases,this one was released in february of this year...i saved a bit of money from my cards to purchase it...!
this is the younger Finn's third solo studio album under his own name, although he has made a lot more than those three in his 37yr recording career.
this one is dissapointing with half the album 'in the bin' basket!
a total lack of anything here, the songs all sound the same, it just sounds uninspired to my ears...
i dont expect the hot catchy tunes that made him huge with Crowded House and Split Enz, but i do expect some sort of value for money material from great songwriters no matter how long theyve been around. this one is almost as big a dissapointment as that stupid "new" album from Macca, SteveO loves that one, i guess he will then love this one also!

I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM
