For his latest album 'Fever Longing Still' which was recorded at Neil Finn’s studio Roundhead in New Zealand, he’s focused on the topic of Love. The fire of love. The pain of love. Love of family. Love entwined in memory and place. Love has always been at the heart of many of Paul Kelly’s greatest songs. To Her Door, How to Make Gravy, Careless, If I Could Start Today Again, Deeper Water, When I First Met Your Ma, Sweet Guy, Dumb Things, Firewood and Candles, The Oldest Story in the Book. Taken from a line in Sonnet 147 by Shakespeare, whose writing has thrilled and inspired Kelly ever since schooldays, Fever Longing Still is his first set of new original material since 2018’s Nature, and it delivers 12 additions to that superb catalog of love songs spanning more than 40 years. “Hello Melancholy, Hello Joy,” as one of the new songs says. Recorded at Roundhead, Neil Finn’s studio in New Zealand. As any of the best-loved songs from Kelly’s pen, “All Those Smiling Faces” is an emotional and vivid exploration of recollection, like peering inside the memories in a photo album.
