LARRY MORRIS TRIBUTE WITH NICK SAMPSON

The New Zealand music community lost one of its great performers and characters, Larry Morris, last year, and Nick Sampson, of the Netherworld Dancing Toys, guest DJed as he/we featured the original Kiwi rock n’ roll Rebel on the She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor.

We also chatted with Larry Morris’ cousin Paul “Remi” Coppins as we reflected on Larry’s huge contribution to the Kiwi music scene. One of Larry’s last vocal recordings features on Paul’s band Iceberg’s album River To The Sea.
