In Your Bright Ray by Grant McLennan
“Countdown to the end of TIMJ #6: Australia's Go-Betweens remain among my most cherished groups, though they sadly came to a close with the sudden death of Grant McLennan in 2006. He and Robert Forster were the McCartney and Lennon of their time. I've yet to Jam a Go-Betweens tune, though I urge you to seek one if you're not familiar; in January of this year I posted a Forster solo number, so I return the favor tonight with my favorite McLennan solo tune. This is the title track of his fourth and final solo album, released in 1997. 2015 is a big year for Go-Betweens fans as a massive anthology of the first third of their career was released just this past winter. Long live the Go-Betweens!”
