Former 'Go-Betweens' member Grant McLennan released a fantastic debut solo album 'Watershed' in 1991. It is surprising to hear that the sales didn't match the critical praise it received. It was played at every party or BBQ I went to in those days... we all seemed to have a copy. The album is full of gems that followed on from the where the Go-Betweens left off. Grant McLennan was more pop sounding than his Go-Betweens co-founder Robert Forster - which peaked on their album '16 Lovers Lane' through to his debut solo. "Easy Come, Easy Go" is a jangly pop song that warmed up a few BBQ's back in the early 90's.
Sadly, he died of a heart attack in 2006... but his music will live on forever.
