I love Crowded House's music, and I very much enjoyed Tim Finn's Imaginary Kingdom, so I had high expectations for Neil Finn's solo work. Alas, Try Whistling This left me slightly disappointed as a result. Don't get me wrong - it's a good album. I like it. I'm glad I have it. I just expected too much from it based on my experience with other Finn-related projects. It's less varied than the previous albums mentioned. I think I'd need to be in a mood for even closer listening than I gave it, as the lyrics seem to be up to Finn standards. I'll have to revisit this album for a fairer evaluation. Currently, the highlights seem to be "She Will Have her Way," "Truth," and "Dream Date."
