Split Enz - Missing Person - 1980

*FOR YOUR LISTENING ENJOYMENT ONLY*

What is the openVAULT you ask? It's quite simple. Music that for lack of a better analogy, has been locked away from the general public. What has happened to the musical landscape is sickening. Far too many artists go largely unnoticed. We are here to change that. To drive the point home, this will not be some "best of" list aka Rolling Stone. No "Stairway", no "Walrus", just music that should be heard. Here at openVAULT you're going to be forced off the beaten path more often than not.

It'll be good for you, trust us.

Every song you will hear is from our private collection, so please NO copying, downloading or reproducing these videos in any form for this is strictly prohibited. You know as in illegal, a no-no. As stated before these tunes are FOR YOUR LISTENING ENJOYMENT ONLY! We won't sell, trade, or give up any mp3s, so if you're here for that purpose please step aside, you're blocking the view of others.

Certainly the hits were good - but their individual albums beat their 'hits' compilations anyday, considering some of the brilliant material on them that one would never hear on radio...

As one of those with the laser-etched LP...this is SUCH a great album. Thanks for posting!

This was my favourite Enz track when I was a the ripe old age of 7! I used to play it on my flat type mono Sanyo cassette deck. I had to borrow the True Colours cassette from my cousin. Nowadays, I have moved on and my fave Enz songs are: Dirty Creature, I Walk Away and I Don't Wanna Dance.

@markblyn The Beatles deserved every single handclap/scream that was given them. Split Enz would fully agree. And yes, True Colours is a perfect pop album.

I did work experience at AAV Recording Studio's as this song was being created.....shall never forget those days....i knew a classic album was being born...

[markblyn]

Yes, better than a lot of the Beatles stuff - the most over-applauded band in history. A perfect pop album.

@markblyn 'The best album of 1980 bar none. Better than the Beatles in many respects on this album' F*ck me. I've heard it all now!
