Today (November 22nd) marks the thirtieth anniversary of the ninth and final album from New Zealand’s Split Enz. By this point, Tim Finn had already left the band so all song writing duties fell to brother Neil. Since he was only come up with six tracks (enough for an EP), the rest of the band contributed pieces to fill out the rest.
The album charted at number 29 in Australia and number 5 in New Zealand.

Time and Tide was released in April of 1982 and was their third album in a row to go to number 1 in both New Zealand and Australia. The album also reached number 71 in the UK, number 58 on the US Billboard Hot 200 chart and number 4 in Canada.
