Brief music news

Somehow I managed to miss the news that kiwi legend Chris Knox had a stroke last week. Anyone vaguely aware of the NZ music scene will realise what a legend he is, I've got 'vague' memories of heading down to the old Bodega drinking great beer and singing along to many of his shows (he was pretty regular there during my undergrad days), and his movie reviews were great when his elder-statesman of NZ music was recognised by the mass media. Everyone knows the track I've video'd here.

In more upbeat news, Abba2 has appeared, Benny Anderson has a new band, which judging by the youtube link, sounds just like his old one. Huzzah !!!
