Free Music Review: Seven Worlds Collide
Hit: 5 Stars
Neil Finn first broke onto the music scene in the 70's as one of the founding members of Split Enz, one of New Zealand's most successful pop/rock/punk bands, and garnered worldwide attention with minor hits "I Got You" and "I See Red." Split Enz, as their name suggests, eventually split ends and Neil went on to form Crowded House in the 80's. Neil enjoyed more success with Crowded House and the hit singles "Don't Dream It's Over," "Something So Strong," and "Weather With You." Crowded House eventually became a little too cramped as Neil and his brother Tim disbanded the group to focus more on their solo work and brotherly collaborations. Try Whistling This, Neil's first proper solo album, shyed away from the Split Enz and Crowded House material as Finn began to take a darker edge with his songwriting in tunes like "She Will Have Her Way," "Sinner," and "Addicted." Despite much critical success, as is par for the Finn family, Whistling failed to take off commercially in the states. Never one to take a day off, Neil promptly went back to work on crafting One Nil, his sophomore solo release. Once again released to critical acclaim in Europe, Australia, and Asia, American record execs at Sony/Work didn't hear another "Don't Dream It's Over" on there. As the Work label was collapsing and Sony was cleaning it's roster of established acts, Neil went back into the studio to re-work One Nil into One All - partly due to label pressures, partly due to his perfectionistic tendencies. The traditional record label stories follow leaving Neil with a refurbished version of an album which was already fine to begin with, but without a company to release it in the States. In steps Nettwerk, a Canadian-based artist-friendly label that was for all intensive purposes founded on the international success of Sarah McLachlan, to release One All. Always the showman, Neil continued to tour throughout all this to sold-out audiences across the world culminating in 7 Worlds Collide, an experiment as he says to form a band of his friends and some of the greatest musicians today, play a week of shows, and disband before things start going bad.Neil's constant touring resulted in the all-star 7 Worlds Collide shows, recorded in Neil's native New Zealand. From the One Nil/One All sessions, Germano and Steinberg return, this time accompanied with Radiohead's Ed O'Brien and Phil Selway, the Smiths' Johnny Marr, Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder, brother Tim Finn, and son Liam Finn and his popular Kiwi rock band, Betchadupa. Highlights include an acoustic version of Crowded House's "Fall At Your Feet" and "Don't Dream It's Over." Eddie Vedder and Betchadupa shine on the Split Enz classic, "I See Red," taking it into new territory. Lisa Germano's bewitching "Paper Doll" and "Cry Wolf" would give anyone goosebumps while Neil does a fine job with the Smiths' classic "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out." Try Whistling This's "Loose Tongue" has one of the most memorable bass lines this author has ever heard, and the live rendtion of "She Will Have Her Way" brings out the fun and energy inherent in the original. Guiding us through all this is Neil's traditional Kiwi charm and wit which is unmatched by any live performer today. If Neil Finn considered 7 Worlds Collide an experiment, and the cd/dvd of the shows his published results, someone fund this sonic scientist again.
