A wonderful recording of Robert Forster and Grant McLennan from
their 1999 tour to promote the release of Bellavista Terrace;
The Best of the Go-Betweens, taken from the ABC's Studio 22 show.
A beautiful recording of some of their finest in the acoustic tradition.
Many thanks to the most brilliant Chuck who has dragged this gem
from his archives.
I saw them play on this tour, it was a come back I didn't think I
would see at the time and of course it was only the start of a new
beginning.

that I've been singing a lot lately.
Love Goes On - Grant McLennan
There's a cat in my alleyway
Dreaming of birds that are blue
Sometimes girl when I'm lonely
This is how I think about you
There are times that I want you
I want you so much I could bust
I know a thing about lovers
Lovers lie down in a trust
Love goes on anyway!
Love goes on anyway!
The people next door got their problems
They got things they can't name
I know a thing about lovers
Lovers don't feel any shame
Late at night with the lights down low
The candle burns to the end
I know a thing about darkness
Darkness ain't my friend
Love goes on anyway!
Love goes on anyway!
I'm gonna make you happy
I'm gonna spin you round
I'm gonna cut your strings
I put my foot flat down on the floor
I took it as far as I could
I took it down there to Sheridan Street
by the dark wood
Late at night when I want you
I lock you in my room
I know a thing about darkness
I know a thing about lovers
I know a thing about lovers
Lovers want the moon
Love goes on anyway!
Love goes on anyway!

Many thanks for sharing this.
Hello Bob, last week my harddrive crashed and for some reason I didn't have a backup of this great, lovely show. I found the link to your blog in my favourites, but the download is long gone. Is there any chance of a re-up? Missing the greatest version of "Lee Remick"... greetings from germany, Frank
