5.0 out of 5 stars
I love this album,
By Marissa Lane (Sydney Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Liberty Belle & Black Diamond Express (Bonus CD) (Audio CD)
This is my 5 star Go Betweens album....every song is a good one and several of them are great...anyone who loves the GOB's has their own favourite and you can debate which one, (and I have)...This is their fourth album and the guys had grown up here and were making songs that reflected and refined their personal experiences and not just their imaginary ones...Grant Mc Lennan and Robert Forster were uniquely two lead singers in the one band, and they both had unique voices...both were infallibly Romantic but Forster was the ironist, McLennan, even at his lightest, was always touched with melancholy...these guys were the genuine article and though they never got famous they were a remarkable band... Spring Rain is Robert Forster at his most jaunty, Twin Layers of Lightening at his most sophisticated, Bow Down his most romantic...McLennan's offerings The Wrong Road and Apology Accepted are splendid...I love this album...If you don't know the band, start with a Greatest Hits and if you get what The Go Betweens were up to, this is the album you must have.
