TR429 Robert Forster Inferno ROBERT FORSTER INFERNO CD / LP / Digital release date: March 1st, 2019 ‘The jungle is coming up to the door, The birds that are calling are hard to ignore’ ‘Inferno’ is acclaimed Australian singer-songwriter Robert Forster’s first solo album in four years - his second album over the last eleven years. Forster only makes records when he feels he has the songs - on ‘Inferno’, he has nine he totally believes in. They range from the exhilarating top ten pop of ‘Inferno (Brisbane In Summer)’, the beach shack groove of ‘Life Has Turned A Page’, via ‘Remain’s 1977 New York strut, to finish in a way that this concise, brilliant, drama and wit filled album only can - on the big build epic ‘One Bird In The Sky’. ‘Inferno’ was made in Berlin in 2018, during the hottest German summer in decades. Noted producer/engineer Victor Van Vugt (Beth Orton ‘Trailer Park’, P J Harvey ‘Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea’), recorded the album; the first time he and Forster had worked together since Van Vugt engineered Forster’s debut solo album classic ‘Danger In The Past’ in Berlin in 1990. ‘Inferno’ in its making is a perfect mix of the familiar and the new. Also working with Forster again, are Brisbane based multi-instrumentalists Scott Bromley and Karin Bãumler from ‘Songs To Play’ (2015), while new recruits are drummer Earl Havin (Tindersticks, Mary J. Blige) and keyboardist Michael Muhlhaus (Blumfeld, Kante). Four musicians from the corners of the world, who, with Van Vugt’s bold and beautiful production, sound like a band of the ages. In front of them, Forster delivers the best vocal performances of his career Over the last four years Forster has been busy. He curated the acclaimed, Domino Records released, ‘Anthology Volume 1 1978-1984’ on his old band The Go-Betweens. His memoir ‘Grant & I’ was Mojo and Uncut’s Book Of The Year. He continues to publish music journalism, play concerts, and he never stops writing beautiful songs. Tracklist 1. Crazy Jane On The Day Of Judgement 2. No Fame 3. Inferno (Brisbane in Summer) 4.

Although the Go-Betweens were absent throughout the '90s before re-forming in the new millennium, both of the band's songwriters embarked on respectable solo careers in the interim and, while rarely reaching the heights the Go-Betweens scaled, they still managed to uphold the group's legacy.

  • Robert Forster & Grant Mclennan Intermission
    Beggars Banquet Presents Robert Forster & Grant McLennan Intermission – The Best of the Solo Recordings 1990-1997 Limited Deluxe Edition BBQCDD 2042 Released in the UK on Monday 18 June 2007 The best solo recordings from the founding members of the Go-Betweens on 2 individual CD sets 26 tracks recorded between 1990 and 1997 and chosen by Robert Forster and Grant McLennan All songs re-mastered from the original tapes. Contains special 28 page lyric book This compilation has had a seven year gestation. When the Go-Betweens reformed in 2000 for The Friends of Rachel Worth, I recall a conversation in the band’s dressing room when Beggars Banquet’s Steve Webbon first discussed his idea for a best of McLennan/Forster – a summary of their solo years. From 1989 – 1998, after the Go-Betweens disbanded, Robert Forster and Grant McLennan recorded four solo albums each. Here their radically different writing styles were showcased; Robert arch and dramatic, Grant earnest and poppy. But the fervour of the fanbase was such that many fans compiled their own new Go-Betweens LPs from the highlights of their respective albums. This curious happening may well have inspired this novel compilation. I recall discussions about the album regularly reappearing over the following years and Steve’s various ideas for its presentation. Perhaps their songs should be mixed up together. Perhaps it should just be one CD. Sometime in late 2005 after the release of their masterpiece swansong Oceans Apart, Robert and Grant decided that this compilation should at last be brought into the light.
