Description:
Breezy, jangly, and full of accessible twang, LIBERTY BELLE AND THE BLACK DIAMOND EXPRESS (1986) is one of the best efforts by The Go-Betweens. Without sacrificing the edge or emotional intensity of the band's first three records, LIBERTY BELLE lightens the Go-Betweens' sound to a summery beauty.

Whether on the countrified lope of opener "Spring Rain," the chiming arpeggios of "To Reach Me," or the immediately endearing Smiths-like "Head Full of Steam," Forster is at his best here. But Grant McLennnan's tunes are equally strong, as the haunting pulse of his "In the Core of a Flame" proves.

Alongside BEFORE HOLLYWOOD and 16 LOVERS LANE, LIBERTY BELLE is one of the finest efforts by these '80s underground icons.

This remastered edition of LIBERTY BELLE features a bonus disc with B-sides and rarities including film clips.
