The Go-Betweens – 16 Lovers Lane

Widely regarded as The Go-Betweens' finest album, this sixth release has been described by Record Collector as “almost universally acknowledged as The Go-Betweens' finest hour” and is often dubbed “the indie Rumours.” Its ten love songs combine warmth, wit and emotional depth, earning praise from Robert Christgau as “the straightest and catchiest bunch of love songs they’ve ever produced.” Included in 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die, Robert Forster summed it up as “the perfect combination between London melancholy and Sydney sunshine.”
