Grant & I Inside and Outside the Go-Betweens - Robert Forster

Grant & I is the story of the friendship and collaboration of Grant McLennan and Robert Forster, who gave Australia The Go-Betweens, one of our best and most influential bands. It was named Book of the Year 2017 by Mojo and Uncut magazines.

The Go-Betweens, one of Australias most talented and influential bands, very nearly wasnt. Grant McLennan didnt want to be in a group, and couldnt even play an instrument. That didnt stop the singer-songwriter duo of Forster/McLennan becoming one of the most acclaimed partnerships in Australian music history.

Just as The Go-Betweens always defied categorisation, Grant & I is like no other rock memoir. At its heart is a privileged insight into a prolific artistic collaboration that lasted three decades, and an extraordinary friendship that rode out the bands break-up to remain strong until Grants premature death in 2006.
