Revolving line-up of a Flying Nun outfit - George Henderson, Lesley Paris, Norma O'malley, Peter Gutteridge, Ross Jackson, Lindsay Maitland, Jenny Crooks, Rochard Cotton, Norman Dufty and Vikki Wilkinson. As George Hendersons' project The Puddle are considered as possible the great under-appretiated New Zealand band, most probably hastened by the groups lack of recorded output and the notoriety of Henderson himself over the years. Thankfully in 2005 the group started to gain moment once more, with Henderson again recording material, and the group performing live with more regularity. 2006 saw the release of songs for Emily Valentine on the powertool distribution label.
The purpose of this blog is to expose you to the unique and unrepeatable New Zealand scene known as "Dunedin Sound" that emerged in New Zealand in the early eighties. This space takes over from wonderful blogs that in their time served to make known to the world some of the most significant bands and records of that period. The present collection is dedicated to all those kiwi bands -many of them already forgotten- who, without knowing it, wrote a very important page in the history of music.
