Crowded House Distant Sun on Good Morning America from Down Under

May 1993 GMA was in Auckland and met up with the band months before the release of TA. You'll hear Neil give the original name of 'Distant Sun.'

In 1995 or so, I traded a Daniel Ash solo CD, 5 blank VCR tapes, and postage for 10 hours of Crowded House video. I couldn't tell you the name of the person who did it, but it was quite a score for me.

Some of it is pretty common, some of it obscure. I'm posting all the non-commercially available stuff. It is quite a project but another CH fan did me a favor 14 years ago and it is my turn to repay the favor. Watch all the videos and if you are a fan enjoy! PLEASE COMMENT, RATE, and SUBSCRIBE. I'd love to hear from you and I have dozens of more clips on the way!

Ah! I remember working on the TV production of this! Gawd, was it really 1993?!?! Last year I sold a new mixing console to the studio in Kare Kare where TA was recorded. TA is my favourite album so it was a real buzz to hang out there and talk with the guys who worked on it.

@tatuanui Great story! Thanks for sharing. I think after all this time TA is my favorite too. I think it has held up the best. The others are still great, but TA is most likely to transport me musically. Although I've visited NZ I've never been to Kare Kare. Looks amazing from the video I've seen.

Great Song! Unfortunately we can't hear Mark play. And he's too shy to say something during interviews it seems

They are always so entertaining when they are interviewed!!

Trust paul to pick up on the "leader of the band" thing, hes hilarious.

Were they originally going to call the album "Kare Kare"? Didn't know that.
