"Down
at the pub, or at a party, whenever you're stuck, for what to say,

if
you wanna be dinky-di, why don't you give it a try,


look
'em right in the eye and say g'day..."

(Slim Dusty)


Show 173

It's
a classic - Split Enz and their complete 1980 album True Colours.

Split
Enz started in Auckland New Zealand in 1972, in 1975 they moved to
Australia, and in 1980 they released True Colours, recorded in
Melbourne, their fifth and most successful album. As an example of
the band's ANZAC character, in 2010 the album was ranked 22nd in a
list of 100 best Australian albums, despite its origins as a New
Zealand group.

The
name of this program is the Down Under Hour, not the Down Under 40
minutes,
so here's Split Enz live
to complete the hour
, from their 1984
farewell tour, which they called Enz With A Bang!
.


Two
songs recorded at Festival Hall in Melbourne on November 5, 1984:


Lead
A Horse To Water


One
Mouth Is Fed


(Festival
Hall is the venue that hosted the Beatles on their Australian tour in
1964.)


From
what was billed as their last show, on December 6,1984, at the Logan
Cambell Centre, in Auckland, New Zealand:
