Off the record
Homegrown: A Discography of NZ Music Compiled by Don Macnaughtan (Wellington Public Library, PO Box 1992, Wgt'n, 51) There's been a real need for a comprehensive discography of New Zealand releases for some time and Mr Macnaughtan is to be commended for taking on the task. His listing is extensive but naturally covers only those recordings the library actually owns so there are some glaring omissions. No 7" singles * are stocked but a handful of 7" EPs creep into the catalogue. It's very pleasing to see cassette releases listed alongside records, too. An attempt to date the releases would have given the booklet a far more enduring value, however. And don't forget that all these releases (not just rock but jazz, folk, blues, country and comedy) are actually available to be borrowed from the library. At its minimal cost this listing is worth obtaining. RB
