Notes:

Herbs came together 30 years ago this year, in a time of societal upheaval, Maori awakening and land rights struggles, a global shift in indigenous consciousness, and all against the background of MuldoonÆs vice-like hold on power and later a Springbok rugby tour which divided the nation.

In recent years contemporary groups like Fat Freddys Drop, Katchafire and House of Shem (led by former Herbs member Carl Perkins) have cited Herbs as inspirational pioneers.

For this 30th anniversary compilation, 16 classic Herbs originals have been compiled by founder member Dilworth Karaka, and also included is a new version of Sensitive To A Smile by Hollie Smith.


Rippers Notes:

Tracks 07. and 17. named with original artists (who sing in these versions), and yeah 09. Tim Finn - Parihaka (Feat. Herbs). Track 18. is Hollie Smith's new 2008 version of Sensitive To A Smile.
