THE HULAMEN
Hulamen Beer and Skittles A diverse loveable document from the Wellington aggregation with the fabulous RWP video clip. Many of the players featured in the Rodents who ventured North two years ago, as did Peter Marshall who guests on two songs, the standout, 'Barking Up the Wrong Tree' (exceptional vocal track) and Bulls to Texas'. Though the regular Hulamen vocalists are weak in places, the platter succeeds by virtue of its soulful playing and sympathetic production strident horns, keyboards and bass are cleanly on the vinyl. Pity Hulamen have gone their separate ways. Beer And Skittles is a must for fans and a pleasureable experience from afar. Prime Movers Crying Again (Propeller) Doug Hood captures Movers on 4 track in a spirited thrash through three Nick pop songs, aided by keyboards and a horn. With a better bass sound this'd be a good live recording. A bit dated, where to now? Murray Cammick
