Released in 1988, 16 Lovers Lane found Robert Forster and Grant McLennan writing in full creative partnership, each bringing distinct songwriting voices that had sharpened over a decade of collaboration. It remains essential listening for anyone who traces the lineage from the Velvet Underground through post-punk to the jangly, literate songwriting that followed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis was the Go-Betweens sixth album, and Record Collector noted that it's \"\"almost universally acknowledged as The Go-Betweens finest hour\"\" - and it's been referred to as \"\"the indie Rumours\"\". The ten beautiful songs on this album are all love songs and it's been called a piece of \"\"romantic artistry\"\". Legendary music critic Robert Christgau called it \"\"the straightest and catchiest bunch of love songs they've ever produced\"\" and the album was included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die. Forster described the album as, \"\"the perfect combination between London melancholy and Sydney sunshine.\"\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove Goes on!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuiet Heart\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove Is a Sign\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou Can't Say No Forever\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Devil's Eye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStreets of Your Town\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClouds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWas There Anything I Could Do?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'm All Right\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDive for Your Memory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 607618217020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Beggars Banquet Us\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9.25.26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Broadtime","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49249888960667,"sku":"304661517","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/7172\/files\/packshot-go-betweens-16-lovers-lane-cd-cd-relix.jpg?v=1786502498","url":"https:\/\/relix.shop\/products\/go-betweens-16-lovers-lane-cd","provider":"relix.shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
