Interesting song, with Grant in the chorus. Anyone else listened yet? ------------- The Courier - Mail ; Brisbane, Qld. [Brisbane, Qld]20 Oct 2020 AS THE frontman of george and with his mother and sister both acclaimed singers, Tyrone Noonan is Queensland music royalty. But it’s another local luminary he’ll be paying tribute to at tonight’s National Live Music Awards in a live stream from The Triffid in Brisbane. Noonan (pictured) will showcase his latest single Snow White, featuring the last vocal recording of Go-Betweens legend Grant McLennan, who died of a heart attack in 2006, aged 48. “It’s something I sat on for years; just couldn’t really deal with it – it was a bit too sad and haunting,” Noonan says. “It felt almost like aurally opening up a coffin. “The vocals that I got from him were literally recorded a few weeks before he passed.” | ||

I’ve heard it, Austin. I didn’t think too much of it on first listen, but I’ll give it another go. I came across it by chance on Amazon Music. | ||

I've changed my mind and bought the track. A mere $1 from Bandcamp. And that's $1 Australian, so a pittance in US dollars and UK pounds. https://tyronenoonan.bandcamp.com/track/ snow-white |
