Tim Finn: All's Well That Enz Well
Michael Azerrad, Rolling Stone, 15 June 1989
ONE OF TIM Finn's best re-cent gigs was performing at a sheepshearing party in his native New Zealand. Along with his brother, Neil Finn of Crowded House fame, Tim offered up several Beatles covers, a few Finn originals and a rollicking version of 'Wild Thing' all for the benefit of 150 farmers and their families. "Even the sheep were grooving," Tim says.
