This is The Detail's Long Read - one in-depth story read by us every weekend.

This week, it's Counting the Beats by Garth Cartwright, published in North & South's May edition.

You can read the article, with accompanying photos, in North & South.

Meet Grant Gillanders, the man painstakingly working his way through New Zealand’s entire popular music back catalogue — and reissuing rare sounds which would otherwise be forgotten.

Check out how to listen to and follow The Detail here.
