Needle Mythology, the label founded by music writer, author and broadcaster Pete Paphides, is proud to announce the very first vinyl release of Altitude – the collaborative album by ALT, an ad hoc trio of kindred spirits comprising Andy White, Liam Ó Maonlaí (Hothouse Flowers) and Tim Finn (Split Enz/Finn/Crowded House).
ALT came together in Dublin when Tim Finn stayed at the flat shared by Andy White and Liam Ó Maonlaí. After cementing their friendship, the three decamped to Tim’s studio in Melbourne, where the songs on Altitude were recorded. All the instruments on Altitude were played by White, Ó Maonlaí and Finn. The album was originallyreleased on CD in 1995.
