Grant McLennan RIP

From the Go-Betweens Site:

On Saturday 6th May 2006, legendary Australian singer-songwriter and member of The Go-Betweens Grant McLennan died in his sleep at his home in Brisbane.

The Go-Betweens influenced many of the C86 bands as well as the likes of Belle & Sebastian.

More details here. indie-mp3 passes on it's condolences to his family & friends and posts the Go-Betweens first two singles from the "Lost" album as a tribute. Both were released in 1978.
