Wellington is famous for its rock and roll mavericks - people who rocked for a while then moved to other fields. Legendary drummer, the late Bruno Lawrence quit Blerta and the Crocodiles to become one of the great instinctive movie actors. Fellow Crocodile Fane Flaws became a hugely successful commercial artist and composer, while another,Tony Backhouse, turned to training gospel choirs around the world.
But in music it's often the one that got away that drives you crazy. And for Fane and Tony it was an album called We Disappear.
Simon Morris has known them both for longer than he cares to remember. He picks up the story, and plays some of the tracks - all based on the poetry of Sam Hunt..
Among the musicians are Peter Dasent, Bruno Lawrence; Jonathan Zwartz, Rick Bryant,Jenny Morris, Margot Pierard and Nick Bollinger.
