It’s hard to talk about the history of Australian rock music without spending a huge amount of time on the subject of Neil Finn. Finn was a member of his brother Tim’s band, Split Enz, until they split up (heh…) in 1984. Neil and Split Enz drummer Paul Hester formed Crowded House, and their self titled debut turned out to be a huge success. The album contained three exceptional singles…the monster hit “Don’t Dream It’s Over”, “Something So Strong”, and the almost Beatlesque “Now We’re Getting Somewhere”. The band became MTV stars, and at the time, there were not many who could claim the melodic mastery that Crowded House did. As it turned out, this marked their early commercial peak, and while it’s not their best album, it is their most famous.
This album also includes the excellent tracks “World Where You Live” and “Mean To Me”. There is a bit of filler here, but otherwise this is a big part of the great singles that came out in the eighties. “Don’t Dream It’s Over” alone will keep this album in print forever, and it’s a great companion album to their greatest work, 1991’s Woodface, which reunited the Finn Brothers on one of the most perfect albums ever made. The band made only four albums before splitting up in 1996, and though they have reformed, it’s been without Hester, who died in 2005. This has some truly great moments, and it shows just how good Neil Finn was when his songwriting was on point. One of the better debut albums from the decade, and a fine piece of Australian rock history. [First added to this chart: 03/14/2025]
