"House Of Steam" Putting it simply the L.A.-born Nels Cline's resume' is so deep, to quote Mark Eitzel, it "would make the ocean proud." The guitarist and composer is one of the most respected names in the business and though he's perhaps best known these days for being the guitarist of Wilco, let's not single story Mr. Cline, because his body of work is varied and extensive. Aside from his early jazz work with his twin brother Alex, he's played with everyone from the Geraldine Fibbers to Mike Watt to Thurston Moore. But that doesn't even scratch the surface. Cline has played on close to 200 albums in jazz, pop, rock, country, and experimental music. Let me give you a few of those 200 to play with: Yoko Ono, Henry Kaiser, Firehose, Wayne Kramer, Rickie Lee Jones, John Zorn, Ramblin' Jack Elliot, Neil Finn, Lee Ranaldo and Chris Stamey. And belive me when I tell you that's a heavily expurgated list. Over the years Cline has been in bands with his pal Mike Watt Floored By Four, band with his wife Yuka Honda of Cibo Matto and he's had the Nels Cline Singers, the Nels Cline Trio, and the Nels Cline 4. Now comes The Consentrik Quartet, which is Cline along with saxophonist Ingrid Laubrock, bassist Chirs Lightcap and drummer Tom Rainey. Improvisational, experimental and downright wonderful, the band's debut album is a profound blend of rich cycle grooves, unexpected rhythmic excursions, and subtle meter innovations. It's marvelous work. Filled with delicate percussive brushes, virtuoso sax fills, prowling bass lines idiosyncratic sax melodies and Cline's nimble guitar lines moving through each composition with dextrous finesse, it's hard to think of a richer listening experience in recent memory. It's hard to think of a nicer guy as well--Nels is a lovely fellow and now you get to meet him. www.nelscline.com (http://www.nelscline.com) www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) www.alexgreenbooks.com (http://www.alexgreenbooks.com) Stereo Embers The Podcast IG & Bluesky: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com

Randy was really familiar with the song and Kev was pretty sure he'd never heard it, so how will this one shake out???If Kev were to title this episode, he'd probably call it "I don't know why sometimes I get frightened" or possibly, "Spiders.

Where is TIm Finn today? What's the relationship between Tim Finn and Neil Finn? Who did Tim FInn replace in Fleetwood Mac? Answers to all of these questions and more: Tim Finn is renowned for his work with Split Enz, Crowded House, and as a solo artist. His musical journey began in New Zealand, where he developed a passion for music at a young age, inspired by the Beatles and other rock legends. Finn's early years were marked by a relentless pursuit of creativity and a drive to innovate within the music scene. In 1972, Tim Finn co-founded Split Enz with Phil Judd. The band's early days were characterised by their eclectic and theatrical style, which combined elements of art rock, progressive rock, and new wave. Split Enz quickly gained a reputation for their eccentric performances and unique sound, setting them apart in the music industry. Their breakthrough came with the release of "True Colours" in 1980, featuring the hit single "I Got You." This song catapulted them to international fame, topping charts in Australia and New Zealand and gaining significant airplay worldwide. Split Enz continued to enjoy success with several albums that included hits like "One Step Ahead" and "Six Months in a Leaky Boat." Tim Finn's vocals and innovative songwriting were central to the band's success, helping to establish Split Enz as pioneers in the New Zealand music scene. In the mid-80s, Tim joined his brother Neil Finn in Crowded House. He initially contributed to the band's second album which featured tracks like "Into Temptation" and "I Feel Possessed." Tim's involvement added depth to the band's sound, blending his creative prowess with Neil's to produce a series of compelling and emotionally resonant songs. Although his tenure with Crowded House was brief, it was marked by a creative synergy that significantly influenced the band's music. Tim's solo career began in earnest with the release of "Escapade" in 1983. The album was a commercial success, featuring hits like "Fraction Too Much Friction." His solo work allowed him to explore different musical styles and lyrical themes and subsequent albums continued to highlight his innovative approach to music and songwriting. In addition to his solo albums, Tim Finn released "The View Is Worth The Climb" in 2011. His solo work has been characterised by a blend of pop, rock, and folk influences, reflecting his diverse musical background and enduring creative spirit. Tim Finn's collaborative efforts have also been a significant part of his career. He has worked with a range of artists, including Phil Manzanera, https://manzanera.com/new/Eddie Rayner, and Bic Runga. These collaborations have allowed him to explore different musical landscapes and experiment with new sounds, enriching his already diverse body of work. The Finn Brothers project, a collaboration with his brother Neil, resulted in the release of two acclaimed albums. These showcased the brothers' close musical relationship and their ability to create deeply personal and resonant songs. Tracks like "Only Talking Sense" and "Won't Give In" highlighted their unique chemistry and songwriting prowess. Throughout his career, Tim Finn has been recognised for his melodic craftsmanship and lyrical depth. His contributions to music, both as a solo artist and as part of iconic bands like Split Enz and Crowded House, have left an indelible mark on the industry. Finn's ability to blend introspective lyrics with diverse musical styles has inspired generations of musicians and continues to captivate audiences worldwide.

From the cover art to the great music it contains, this album from The Stones' golden period leading into the 70's - Sticky Fingers & Exile on Main Street - is a corker! In Rock News, Jeff updates us on The Sex POistols, Ritchie Blackmore and Cyndiu Lauper, while our Ozzy Osbourne report has Sharon telling us that “If a bomb dropped there would be cockroaches, Keith Richards and Ozzy!”  Enjoy.  References: The Sex Pistols, Ritchie Blackmore, Deep Purple, Blackmore's Night, Candice Night, Cyndi Lauper, The Police, Spotify, Spotify CEO Daniel Ek, John Lennon's guitar, Ozzy Osbourne, Keith Richards, The Rolling Stones, Let it Bleed, Jimmy Miller, Brian Jones, Mick Taylor, “Gimme Shelter”, “Midnight Rambler”, “Love in Vain”, “You can't always get what you want”, “Honky Tonk Woman”, Beggars Banquet, The Beatles, The Quarrymen, Lonnie Donegan, Revolver, Sgt Peppers, Paul MacCartney, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, The Bee Gees, “New York Mining Disaster”, “Stayin' Alive”, David Bowie, “Love you ‘til Tuesday", “The Laughing Gnome”, art-rock, glam, Bob Dylan, T-Rex, Tyrannosaurus Rex, Japan, Jimi Hendrix, Chitlin' Circuit, Split Enz, Neil Finn, Tim Finn, The Cure, Billy Joel, Black Sabbath, “Black Sabbath”, The Animals, “The House of the Rising Sun”, Isaac Hayes, “Theme from Shaft”, Pixies, “Monkey Gone to Heaven”, Kurt Cobain, Nirvana, Soundgarden, BushPlaylist John Lennon on Dick Cavett Show Hendrix Live on TV   

With special guest: Jeff Apter… in conversation with Bill Kable Jeff Apter has written the definitive story of Neil Finn, one of the Finns, including some remarkable things about this Kiwi icon we claim as an Aussie. Neil first appeared in our consciousness as a freaky member of the band Split Enz. He was the one up front singing I Got You which he also wrote. The band was not a one hit wonder but there were tensions among the members particularly between Neil and the leader of the band, his brother Tim, which cut short the life of the band. Ultimately Tim gave his brother good advice, go and form your own band and this led to Crowded House arriving and taking over the world record charts. Jeff Apter tells us that his book focusses on the music while filling in a lot of the background to the songs and the life of Neil Finn. For many of us a song Neil wrote will have a special meaning because it appeared at an important stage of our lives and the beautiful melody burns the message into our brains. Podcast (mp3)

Crowded House formed in 1985 in Melbourne, Australia. They've released eight albums, including their most recent one, Gravity Stairs, which came out last month. But on their very first album, they had a big hit with "Don't Dream It's Over."Crowded House made “Don't Dream It's Over” with Grammy-nominated producer Mitchell Froom, who they went on to work with multiple times. For this episode, I talked to frontman Neil Finn about how the song was first written, and how it developed with his bandmates and collaborators in the studio. And we talked about the profound connection people have had with the song over the years.For more, visit songexploder.net/crowded-house.

Considered one of the greatest songwriters of his generation, Neil Finn has been writing brilliant melodic pop masterpieces for nearly 50 years. First as a member of the influential New Zealand avant garde band Split Enz, then in 1986 breaking through the pop stratosphere with the trio Crowded House. But it was the early influence of the Beatles that can be heard throughout Finn's masterful catalogue, with classics like Message To My Girl, Weather With You, Better Be Home Soon , Distant Sun and the iconic Don't Dream It's Over. Dont Dream was covered by U2 as a tribute to freedom and Alexei Navalny's widow. Recently, Neil was inspired to reform his beloved band Crowded House , and as is often the case with the Finns, has become a family affair- adding sons Liam (guitar) and Elroy (drums) to the line up. From a small town in New Zealand to pop superstardom, Neil Finn brings his life story and musical journey to Spin Sonic Impact Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
