Water Damage - Dick Diver (from 'Calendar Days' LP)
Now really, how on earth could one possibly resist the tendrils of Lucksmiths, Go-Betweens, Triffids and gosh, any number of the most magical antipodean musical heritage you might care to bring to the party that weaver their way through a record so charmingly smooching the spring rain? Not to mention the ‘Tender Is The Night’ reference. ‘Calendar Days’ was eleven songs long and thirty five minutes short. Once upon a time all albums were as eloquently succinct. Few have been finer.
