Yes, very nice indeed etc. BUT there is nothing by The Puddle on it. A mini album ("Pop Lib"), a live album ("Live at the Teddy Bears Club") and a studio album ("Into the Moon") were released on the Nun. I relaise tracks were hand-picked by Roger etc. but it does seem a tiny oversight in an otherwise scholarly-looking collection IMHO.
And in semi-related news...
Radio One is celebrating this milestone of a boxset by dedicating The Local (Thursday 7th December 7-9pm) to playing nothing from it. Instead we'll be playing Flying Nun stuff not on the boxset, obscurities and favourites alike.
I know what you're thinking, "This is NZMUSIC.com, we're in Wellington you idiot." Well, fear not as Radio One is streamed over the internet. Flying Nun internet nerds unite!
that was a good show. i'm looking forward to the second installment this week. if anyone's interested, the tracklisting for show 1 is up beyond this very scary url:
without checking out the tracklisting, it's gotta be a close tie between David Mitchell, Robert Scott and Shayne Carter. my money's on the latter. Robbie Yeats might be a late-runner too.
defininitely a trainspotter question - the obsessive i'm sitting next to just said "better do a spreadsheet" and meant it. ha!
You could be right iluvtheclean. At a glance, I count 6 appearances by Shayne, and 5 by the others (Kilgour, Scott and Mitchell). Might've missed some though.

no collection is perfect I guess... The Puddle often overlooked and George Henderson one hell of a songwriter
