Thanks Steve How quickly time passes. I've been a huge Go-Betweens fan for years and especially Grant's solo stuff. When someone of a similar age dies suddenly it make you question your own mortality. I understand there is a new compliation of both Grant and Robert's solo material out in the summer but it dosen't seem to offer anything new except re-mastering. I think someone should re-master 'Oceans Apart' - Great album but awful sounding CD - the second press is just as compressed and distorted as the first. Thanks for listening, Peter.

Thanks Mike for listening and your comments. I don't normally record tribute songs but it seemed appropriate this time. The song was written and recorded very quickly and is genuinely heartfelt. All the very best, Peter. Check out my latest song called All The Same (CBGB) (Last Chance Challenge)

Heatfelt and nicely done I don't know much of Grant McLennan's music, apart from a couple of Go-Betweens songs, but i can sense the true sentiment at the heart of this. Nicely sung, and produced, with a genuine soulfulness. In fact, it has inspired to go explore his music some more, which I guess is the ultimate compliment for a tribute song. Check out my latest song called Across the Wire (MJRF)

Thanks for listening - I was thinking of doing a cover of one of Grant's songs originally but I felt this was more appropriate. Do check out Grant's solo material - all 4 albums are well worth owning - There was a condensed version of Horsebreaker Star in the US which might be a good place to start (a complilation is due soon). Thanks again for your comments. Peter Check out my latest song called All The Same (CBGB) (Last Chance Challenge)

Good song I am not familiar with this artist but i will look him up after hearing the song and reading the comments. Nicely played and recorded rhthm guitar parts and your quiet singing is remarkably effective on this song. Overall sounds like a professionally recorded song that you would hear on the radio. Check out my latest song called Strange Feeling

Thanks Bronco, I glad you liked the song and the production. I used my old Yamaha 12-string on this one and, of all my songs, I think I am happiest with this one overall. Peter Check out my latest song called All The Same (CBGB) (Last Chance Challenge)

Thanks Jack Glad you found this one. I haven't been here much lately - haven't written or recorded anything for far too long. I hope I can find some inspiration in 2009!

Looking back ... across your posts Peter I discovered this gem. Heartfelt and beautifully sung I think I like this the most of all your songs. Great production work as always, your guitar work always shines in its delicacy and melody. Check out my latest song called The Last Goodbye (New Version)

Thanks Paddy I'm glad you checked this one out as it's probably my most overlooked song - perhaps it's the subject. It was written and mostly recorded the day I heard the news and I'm glad that the emotion does come across in the performance.

Its hard to believe that its been a year now since Grant's sad passing...he was such a great songwriter, definitely one of my main influences! I ended up recording a version of 'Streets of your town' as my own tribute.
This is a lovely song Peter, you have captured the vunerability and melodicism of Grant nicely on this track.
Cheers for sharing
Steve
