Here's a new interview with Robert Forster about finishing one of departed band-mate Grant McLennan's last songs "Demon Days." It's a good tune, making an impact with short direct lines and a simple, subtle melody, like so much of McLennan's best work. The Evangelist, the new Forster solo album the song is featured on (released in the states tomorrow), also hits the mark as a sad and funny tribute. It's not where I'd recommend one start when beginning with The Go-Betweens (try Before Hollywood or Tallulah), but like the best of either McLennan or Forster's work, it's an album that sinks in and rewards repeat listens. I need to write more about these guys sometime soon. (I've added "Demon Days" to the top of my muxtape.)
