	The N'Betweens
		Noddy agreed so the three then asked Jim Lea if he wanted the job, but meanwhile the N'Betweens were contracted to play a number of bookings with John Howells and Mick Marson who were still officially part of the group.
		It was a frustrating arrangement for Noddy Holder and came to a head in June 1966 when The N'Betweens were sent to Newquay in Cornwall for some bookings and ended up playing a show in Plymouth without Howells.
		In early 1967, The N'Betweens recorded some songs at Abbey Road Studios in London with Pink Floyd producer Norman Smith but the tracks remained unreleased and it would be two years before the band next entered a recording studio.

		Go-Betweens' styrke ligger først og fremmest i at Forster og McLennan kan skrive enkle iørefaldende og alligevel i længden spændende sange.

	Robert Forster's Hair
		Robert Forster was one of the Go-Betweens, the best band of all time.
		If Lou Reed had been two people, had grown up in Australia and had been able to write a better love-song, he would have been the Go-Betweens.
		The Robert Redford look is one of my favourite hairstyles.

		Jack Frost is the moniker for the collaboration between Steve Kilbey of The Church and Grant McLennan of The Go-Betweens.
		Jack Frost is collaboration between Kilbey and Grant McClennan of the Go-Betweens.
		Snow Job is their second effort and a fine one at that, much more polished and flowing than their first.

	THE GO-BETWEENS: Bright Yellow Bright Orange (Trifekta Records)
		Second Go-Betweens release since the reunion of Grant McLennan and Robert Forster finds them sounding more like the band of old, rather than a combination of two solo albums.
		THE GO-BETWEENS: Bright Yellow Bright Orange (Trifekta Records).
		Bright Yellow is in the mould of Tallulah, finding both quirky wordsmith Forster and melodic McLennan in pop mode, strummed acoustics and jangling electric guitars to the fore as ever.

		The number of mamelucos by the middle of the sixteenth century appears to have been large, and what is interesting are the different roles as go-betweens played by mameluco sons vs. mameluca daughters.
		While both mamelucos and mamelucas lived in the Portuguese settlements, the mamelucos tended to be go-betweens between the Indian world and the colony, while the mamelucas adopted the roles of the first European women in the colony, see figure eight.
		Less is known about the marriages of Ramalho's mameluco children, but what we do know reflects the same pattern: mameluca daughters married Portuguese men while the marriages of mameluco sons did not occur or are unknown, see figures six and seven.

		It took a while for the Go-Betweens to click for me, but once they did, it didn't take me long to buy up pretty much their entire discography (although I'm still behind on the solo albums from the years before the band reunited).
		Grant McLennan of the Go-Betweens died recently, in case you didn't know.
		Anyway, while I was reading various remembrances of Grant and his work, I ran across several mentions of a side project I'd managed to miss completely -- Jack Frost, a collaboration with Steve Kilbey (of the Church) -- which had released two albums.

	Inner City Sound - music archive - swapping CD-R, not for sale.
		What's more, original editor Clinton Walker has added an additional 32 pages of articles and photographs, taking the story through to 1985, a period in which the careers of Nick Cave, the Go-Betweens and the Triffids, for example, began to flourish internationally.
		The bands that emerged from the punk scene of the late 1970s in Australia, including the Saints, the Birthday Party, Radio Birdman and the Go-Betweens are among the most important bands of their time.
		Inner City Sound provides proof positive that Australia contributed as much as anyone to the D-I-Y revolution of the late 70s/early 80s: Over forty tracks, restored to a virgin vinyl glory, that still ring fresh and true, a mix of classics and rarities, many appearing on CD for the first time.

	Steve Brett and The Mavericks: one of Noddy Holder's first bands
		Noddy was invited to join the group but further personnel changes would take place before the final and most famous line-up of the N'Betweens was set in place (see The N'Betweens).
		Noddy Holder took a job in a car parts firm to the dismay of his teachers who wanted him to stay on at school for 'A' levels, but Noddy wanted to "turn professional" and the Phantoms became The Memphis Cut-Outs.
		Noddy's day job enabled him to purchase a better guitar and amplifier and he also picked up additional guitar technique from Roy Brown who played with a well known local group called The Redcaps.

	iMusic Modern Showcase - Robert Forster on the ARTISTdirect Network
		When the six original Go-Betweens LPs were remastered and reissued earlier this year, they set off yet another avalanche of praise in the music press - and a fresh batch of wondering, too.
		Robert Forster acknowledged with the title of his first solo album the Danger In The Past, and it's not as if the present is short of pleasures.
		There's a new Robert Forster album for a start - his first collection of original material since 1993's Calling From A Country Phone, although the silence was punctuated in 1994 by an idiosyncratic collection of cover versions called I Had A New York Girlfriend.
