I'm wondering about the availability of some of the solo years records on vinyl. I've seen all of Robert's except for I Had a New York Girlfriend. However, I've only ever seen Grant's first record on LP. Any idea if Fireboy, Horsebreaker Star and IYBR have ever been released on vinyl? And if not, why not? Thanks, Bryce |

Pete and Jeff are our go-to guys when it comes to The Go-Betweens or solo stuff on vinyl. I'm sure they'll get back to you. 16 Lovers Lane is the only one I have on vinyl. |

I have Grant's 12" singles from Watershed and the CD single for Lighting Fires w/ his sweet version of If I Should Fall Behind. |

All of Robert's solo records were pressed on vinyl by Beggars, but only Grant's Watershed and Fireboy are available on said format. |

Donat, I've never see the Firboy LP on the vinyl format. Is it pretty rare? And do you know why IYBR wasn't released on vinyl? B. |

Fireboy is not something you see all too often in shops, but it does indeed exist. It's popped up on ebay from time to time. Not sure why the others weren't given a vinyl release... |
