The Lucksmiths
The Lucksmiths played their final gig yesterday in Melbourne. I know that in this summer of the obit the last thing anyone needs is another bittersweet bag of memories. So rather than wax on about 15 some-odd years of great music and memories I’ll just leave you with a top ten list. (This was hard. When I tried to create my Lucksmiths top ten I ended up with a top 51!)
Enjoy these and just know that at some point I’ll be cornering you with a story about one or more of these songs.
The Great Dividing Range
(Quite possibly my favorite song ever)
T-Shirt Weather
The Golden Age of Aviation
Southernmost
(”Where the sky was swimming pool blue, and the swimming pool was too…”)
Under the Rotunda
Wyoming
(My very first Lucksmiths song, discovered through that newfangled thing called “filesharing” in 1997)
Camera-Shy
(Nicole, this one’s for you
)
Guess How Much I Love You
Untidy Towns
Self-Preservation
(PS: here’s the lot)
