Go-Betweens to Release Live DVD/CD David Nadelle reports: Australian comeback kids the Go-Betweens are celebrating yet another banner year in their second life as a band. Their latest studio album, Oceans Apart, figured prominently among many "best of" lists for 2005, and the rejuvenated outfit are to release a live DVD/CD entitled That Striped Sunlight Sound on February 7 through their American label Yep Roc. (It comes out January 27 on Tuition in Europe). The live concert portion of the set is a recording of a sold-out October 2005 show at the Tivoli Theatre in the band's hometown of Brisbane that includes run-throughs of Go-Betweens standards like "Streets of Your Town", "Spring Rain", and "Karen". For super-fans, though, the real selling point has to be the "Sunday Acoustic Session" bonus feature. A sit-down-and-hash-out clambake with group leaders Robert Forster and Grant McLennan, it's an acoustic ramble through the essential tracks of their oeuvre, featuring song origin and composition insights from both songwriters. So basically it's "VH1 Storytellers" for cool people.
