Crowded House- S/T: 40th Anniversary Expanded Audiophile Edition (1986/2026) ****



 • That Mickey Dolenz E.P. is a bit of a disappointment. Opens strong with the Westerberg and Andy Partridge tracks, then veers into what is borderline "adult comtemporary" schmaltz.

• The Walrus review at the other place.

• I really enjoyed the bonus LP of b-sides, remixes and demos more than the proper Crowded House album.
