Maybe the greatest thing to have ever come from New Zealand is the music of Neil Finn. After playing with his brother Tim in Split Enz from 1977 to 1984, and then fronting the great Crowded House for over a decade, Finn finally released his solo debut, Try Whistling This, in 1998. The first of his two solo studio albums, this one is a firm departure from the sound of Crowded House, more experimental, and very accessible. He brings in session musicians to play mostly drums and bass (including his son Liam), while handling almost all of the guitars and vocals himself.
The highlights here are “Sinner”, “She Will Have Her Way”, and “Last One Standing”, all featuring great Finn trademark harmonies and fine hooks. Try Whistling This is what you get from anyone named Finn: a great sounding product with mostly good songwriting, nothing standing out too much in the way of outstanding material. Finn is an artist you can’t really go wrong with, whether it be with one of his bands (Crowded House has since reformed), or his work with brother Tim, or his solo ventures. An album worth investigating, especially if you’re a fan. [First added to this chart: 01/11/2013]

Including "The Masterplan" is a good idea.
