www.thebatteryclinic.co.nz For cheap batteries solar and wind energy systems. This song also known as Te Riro Riro was recorded in 1989. Dave Henere was a well known maori artist and this song certainly showed the professionalism in his delivery. Sadly Dave is no longer with us. This is a tribute to my good friend whose memory I will always treasure. You are always in my heart Dave. Hard but Soft; as you always say. The frogman will know!!
