16 Lovers Lane
The Go-Betweens
5/5
Sweet but not saccharin, jangly but not too jangly. A little pretentious, but not too wanky. *Very* Antipodean, whatever that means. Sunny and glum in equal measures. Quite a lovely album, I'm grateful to be hearing it for the first time. Hearing the Chills, Don McGlashan etc in this.

Found it here: https://youtu.be/JbYmWrfNJpQ?si=KB05SRDULWAIWZRY It's giving me Cohen vibes weirdly. If Nico was a good singer and covered Scott Walker covering Jacques Brel. I like it. It's dark, avante-gard. Challenging, but rewarding.

Creedence Clearwater Revival
5/5
This has to be THE Creedence album right? I don't think I've ever realised what an amazing band they were. Their 5th album in what, 2 years? 11 tracks, five of which were top 5 singles? Magnificent.
