Zoe ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
CONGRATULATIONS DAVID HECUBOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you, supercutie RioBot. We're getting close - just the final galleys and the index to do. Then - the fun of the book launch parties. Which will involve music and groovy behavior. Though I doubt it can top the Bubblegum book launch at the roller rink.

Hey, if I'm looking to buy a Go-Betweens album, where would people recommend I start off?
Cattle and Cane
or is it Kane?
"Cattle and Cane" is a great song. I might jump in on their mid-period, bt.
I think 16 Lover's Lane has their most radio ready songs, like "Streets Of Your Town."
Record store guy almost had an orgasm of happiness when Tina bought Before Hollywood.

I do like that song. And Right Here, whose absence is the only thing preventing me from starting with Bellavista Terrace. Well, that and the feeling that I could probably stand to wind up with the odd few Go-Betweens albums, and I'd prefer to avoid overlap. I think 16 Lover's Lane might be the go.
Should you get further into their catalog, billytea, I think you'd like Spring Hill Fair and Before Hollywood as well. Probably Liberty Belle too which has "Spring Rain" on it.
I've placed an order for 16 Lovers Lane (though it won't actually arrive until some time in September). Thanks.
Huh. Learn something new every day. The songwriter Chip Taylor (who wrote "Wild Thing," "Angel of the Morning" and the Hollies/Ronstadt hit "I Can't Let Go") is Jon Voigt's older brother.
It's the rare, successful sibling actor/musician combo. I wonder if Sean and Michael Penn know about this.

Sigourney Weaver's uncle, Winstead "Doodles" Weaver", was one of Spike Jones' City Slickers. (His rendition of "The Man on the Flying Trapeze" has been on my answering machine for months, annoying friends and enemies alike.) So, not siblings, but related -- and more fun than anything involving Michael Penn. Yes, even including Aimee Mann.
