Recorded between 1980 & 1982. Includes liner notes by Stewart Lee.

This remastered edition of SEND ME A LULLABY features a bonus disc with B-sides and rarities.

After a critically acclaimed trio of 7" singles--two self-produced and one on the influential Scottish Postcard label--Australia's the Go-Betweens recorded their first album, SEND ME A LULLABY, with new drummer Lindy Morrison augmenting the duo of Robert Forster and Grant McLennan. The songs on this album explore a jerking, spare style of folk music that is both oddly unsettling and demanding of attention at the same time.

The most obvious example of this effect is Forster's "Eight Pictures," a musically-sparse tale of an unattainable girl stalked by the photography-obsessed narrator that has two incongruous elements--a bizarre, massive-sounding drum solo and an extremely out-of-place lyrical joke. Other standouts include the clear, distant guitar structure of McLennan's "One Thing Can Hold Us," the pulsing, bass-heavy "All About Strength," and the faux-country elements filling out the rather odd tempo of "Ride." Though the Go-Betweens may not have been too polished at the time, knew exactly the kind of music that they wanted the world to hear.

Stunning remastered 2 CD set featuring 12 previously unreleased tracks including a duet with Nick Cave and an enhanced section featuring the video for 'Your Turn My Turn'. 2002.

Producers include: Tony Cohen, The Go-Betweens, Alex Fergusson.

Compilation producer: Bernard MacMahon.

The Go-Betweens: Grant McLennan (vocals, guitar, bass); Robert Forster (vocals, guitar); Lindy Morrison (drums, background vocals).

Additional personnel: James Freud (saxophone); Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds.



This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.Musician (10/96, pp.83-84) - "...It's by no means a stretch...to call Australia's Go-Betweens the bery best rock 'n' roll band of the '80s.... combining tension with beauty, happiness with regret, and love with anger..."
Mojo (Publisher) (7/02, p.122) - "...A record full of twitching, minimalist charm..."
NME (Magazine) (4/13/96, p.47) - 5 (out of 10) - "...skeletal boxroom funk..."

Average Rating: (3 out of 5 stars) 3 stars

3 stars Early work from the great lost band of the 80's
Definitely a bit amateurish, and not the place to start if you're new to the Go-B's. But if you're already a convert, the bonus disc of rarities makes this a must-have.

After working his way through loss and chaos on the brilliant TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT (recorded in 1973, but not released until 1975), Neil Young deftly exorcised any lingering demons with 1974's ON THE BEACH. The album opens with the saunter of the aptly titled "Walk On," followed by the utterly gorgeous, Wurlitzer-tinged "See the Sky about to Rain." The set also features a trio of scathing songs--"Revolution Blues," "Vampire Blues," and "Ambulance ...

Recorded between 1978 & 2001. Includes liner notes by Robert Smith, Simon Gallup, and Johnny Black. A remarkable four-disc set of B-sides and rarities, JOIN THE DOTS serves as a sort of alternate history for the Cure, one of the world's most beloved post-punk/alt-rock bands. Painstakingly compiled by Cure frontman (and the group's only constant member) Robert Smith, DOTS provides dozens of glimpses into the literal flip-side of their singles by collecting many long-lost tracks, including the classic songs previously featured only on the cassette version of STARING AT THE SEA: THE SINGLES. Disc one begins in the late 1970s and consists of early tracks that show the Cure in a wildly ...

OCEANS APART is the third studio album by Robert Forster and Grant McLennan since the two lauded Australian singer/songwriters reunited under the Go-Betweens banner in 2000. A vibrant pop-rock outing, this record stands in notable contrast to the stripped-down indie sound of THE FRIENDS OF RACHEL WORTH and the acoustic-oriented atmosphere of 2003's BRIGHT YELLOW, BRIGHT ORANGE.

Kosheen Kokopelli CD  (2003)

Send Me A Lullaby
CD $11.65  5 stars
Kosheen have solved the bass+drum=pop equation with their sophomore release KOKOPELLI featuring 12 tracks including "Avalanche" and "Coming Home." Putting drum'n'bass back on the map for the first time since Roni Size four years earlier, Kosheen's debut album, Resist, was a surprising commercial success back in 2001. Combining dark brooding basslines, high-octane breakbeats, and Sian Evans' distinctive vocals, it cleverly managed to appeal to both dance aficionados and mainstream radio, notching up sales of nearly half a million in the process. Follow-up Kokopelli, named after a mythical Native American flute player, sees the trio ditching its programming tools in favor of guitars to create a more expansive sound that often leans toward goth rock, with the menacing atmospherics still intact but the rough edges smoothed out. Indeed, the majority of the album follows a formula of crunching guitars, minimal electronica, and doom-laden lyrics that does not show off Evans, one of Britain's most underrated vocalists, to her best advantage. The album is convincing, however, when it abandons its Evanescence-lite attempts at metal. "Coming Home" may be a retread of the epic "Hungry," but its melancholic, acoustic vibe is welcome, while lead single "All in My Head," with its upbeat radio-friendly chorus, shows Kosheen ...
