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.
