Crowded House Dedicate Don’t Dream Its Over To Michael Gudinski
Neil Finn dedicated his Corwded House classic ‘Don’t Dream Its Over’ to Mushroom founder Michael Gudinski at the first Crowded House show of 2021 in New Zealand this week.
Gudinski passed away in his sleep at his home in Toorak on 2 March 2021. He was 68. Neil Finn’s first ever record came via Gudinski’s Mushroom Records when he joined his brother Tim’s band Split Enz. Neil joined Split Enz in 1977 replacing Phil Judd who went on to form The Swingers and have a hit with ‘Counting The Beat’. Neil was the Split Enz guitarist and singer but didn’t write anything on ‘Dizrythmia’, the third album for Split Enz and his first album with the band. It wasn’t until the fifth album ‘True Colours’, Neil’s third Enz record, where he shone with the song ‘I Got You’ and gave Split Enz their first international hit.
