The third and final installment of the Go-Betweens’ box set anthology series, G Stands for Go-Betweens, will be released on December 13. Spanning the 2000-2006 output of the beloved Australian indie-pop duo, the 4xLP, 7xCD set includes vinyl represses of their final three albums—The Friends of Rachel Worth, Bright Yellow Bright Orange, and Oceans Apart—plus dozens of rarities and unreleased tracks. A collection of fourteen unreleased songs recorded 1991 completes the set.
The fourth LP in the set is an acoustic radio session recorded for Bayern 2 Radio in Munich; Oceans Apart has been mixed for the LP repress by original producer Mark Wallis. B-sides, more radio sessions, and demos round out the bonus materials. Check out the full tracklist via Domino. The duo’s surviving member, Robert Forster, provides archival materials and liner notes in a 112-page book featuring other essays and writing too. The first 421 orders come with a book from the late Grant McLennan’s personal library and a signed bookmark from Forster.
The G Stands for Go-Betweens box set series launched with its first volume in 2015, covering their output between 1978 and 1984. The second volume, spanning ’85-’89, arrived four years later.
