Album of the Week #1
Powderfinger: Odyssey Number Five

Starting with an Aussie childhood classic.

It's hard to seperate how you feels about any piece of art with any nostalgia attached to the original consumption of it. So I recognise that my love for this album may be coloured heavily by hearing it for the first time at age 13... But trying my best to be objective about it: This is a showstoppincgly awesome straight forward rock album.

Favourite tracks:  
- Waiting For The Sun
- My Happiness 
- Like A Dog
- These Days  

Fun fact: “These Days” was originally written for the film “Two Hands”. Which if you haven’t seen it… make it the next thing you watch —seriously. It’s an incredibly underrated crime-comedy gem starring a young Heath Ledger. Basically the Australian version of “Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels” (Which if you also haven’t seen, then now you have two must-watch-films this week). 

That’s it for week 1.  
Say cheers to your ears for me, 

Goldy

Trip down memory lane. Amazing live band, had the privilege of hosting them at the venue I managed in 2010 in Cape Town. https://www.bizcommunity.com/Article/196/480/48611.html
