Neil Finn: One Nil (Parlophone)

Finn's second solo album finds him still showing a knack for penning prefect pop tunes - two songs in and you have Rest Of The Day Off, the kind of track that wouldn't look out of place on a Crowded House album.

Elsewhere there's quite a funky edge on the likes of Don't Ask Me Why - no doubt to the influence of former Prince cohorts Wendy Melvoin and Lisa Coleman, whose fingerprints are all over several songs here.

A good broad spectrum of Finn's styles gives One Nil a well-rounded feel, and makes it instantly more memorable than Try Whistling This.
