two high resolution pdf files available. A two panel
jacket and a two panel inside jacket image. Both are

bought or are thinking about buying the album.

My friends, Paul and
Jeremy at Paul's Boutique in Kensington Market here
in Toronto have a started an amplifier company. They
are making a really great sounding point to point
wired 5 watt Class A amplifier at a very reasonable
price. It's a combination of a tube guitar amp and a
high quality recording preamp in one package. I've
tried one and it does indeed sound great. Highly
recommended. Check out the specs at their website
here. http://www.douglasamps.com
Robert Forster - Pandanus

I just downloaded Robert Forster's song Pandanus for
his upcoming album The Evangelist. It's available as
a digital download from his recording company site.
The album just got a 5 star review in Uncut magazine
in the UK. It's out end of April. Here's the link for
the download,

and here's a link to RF's Evangelist page on his
site, http://www.robertforster.net/rfevangelist.html.
This is Robert's first post Go-Betweens release
and the song is really good.
I toured with Robert, Robert Vickers and Grant McLennan (the other Go-Betweens on the bus) a few years back. Robert Vickers and I were playing together in Lloyd Cole's backing group and Robert Forster and Grant McLennan were opening as an acoustic duo. I have many great memories from that outing and news of Grant's passing in 2006 was shocking and saddening. I'll always remember his warmth as a person and his love of life, literature and songs. A great songwriter with friends all over the world. He is very fondly remembered.
