BOOK OF THE YEAR 2017 - MOJO MAGAZINE & UNCUT MAGAZINE "In
early '77 I asked Grant if he'd form a band with me. `No,' was his
blunt reply." Grant McLennan didn't want to be in a band. He
couldn't play an instrument; Charlie Chaplin was his hero du jour.
And yet, when Robert Forster wrote Hemingway, Genet, Chandler and
Joyce into his lyrics, McLennan couldn't resist a second invitation
to become 80s indie sensation The Go Betweens. The friends would
collaborate for three decades, until Grant's premature death in
2006. Beautifully written - like lyrics, like prose - Grant & I
is a rock memoir akin to no other. Part `making of', part music
industry expose, part buddy-book, this is a delicate and perceptive
celebration of creative endeavour. With wit and candour, Robert
Forster pays tribute to a band who found huge success in the
margins, having friendship at its heart.
