The Amps - Pacer (1995)
A very short lived but brilliant interim project from The Pixies’ and Breeders’ Kim Deal. I always thought that the Pixies and Breeders were misplaced on the 4AD label.

Heidi Berry - Miracle (1996)
About as close to Celtic folky stuff that I would chose to get. I’m not a great fan at all but this record combines Heidi Berry’s wonderful vocal delivery with Violinist Anne Wood’s unconventional but stunning string work.

The Breeders - Pod (1990)
Insane cover, insanely good record! And all over in less than 30 minutes. I had the pleasure of seeing them support The Smashing Pumpkins in Wellington in 1994.

The Big Pink - A Brief History Of Love (2009)
“The Big Dirge” more like it! But amidst all of the suffocation are some really good songs that hark back to the sound I was engrossed with during the late 80’s and 90’s.

This Mortal Coil - It'll End In Tears (1984)
I’m reading “Facing The Other Way: The Story of 4AD” at the moment and reliving memories of the truly eclectic music I was exposed to during the post-punk 80s.
