Description

THE GO BETWEENS - " Send Me A Lullaby" LP Original Rough Trade UK 
Record - NM Cover - EX
Send Me a Lullaby is the debut album by the Australian indie rock band The Go-Betweens.  Release History

  • Australia: Released in November 1981 as an 8-track mini-album on the independent label Missing Link.
  • United Kingdom: Released in February 1982 by Rough Trade Records as a expanded 12-track full-length album.
  • Title: Robert Forster and Grant McLennan named it after a line in Zelda Fitzgerald’s novel Save Me the Waltz. 
Musical Style & Sound
  • Vibe: It features a dry, semi-spoken vocal style, angular guitar-and-bass interplay, and a rough-hewn, post-punk art-funk sound.
  • Influences: It was heavily shaped by late-70s and early-80s art-rock and post-punk bands like Wire, Television, and Talking Heads.
  • Band Members: The core trio featured Robert Forster (guitar/vocals), Grant McLennan (bass/vocals), and Lindy Morrison (drums), with guest saxophone by James Freud on the track "People Know"

  • Finding "DAMONT" in the dead wax clarifies the puzzle. Your copy was manufactured by Damont Audio, a legendary UK pressing plant based in Hayes, Middlesex.  Rough Trade heavily relied on Damont Audio to press and distribute their independent catalog during the 1980s.  What This Tells Us About Your Record:
    • The "Damont" Variant: You have the specific Damont Pressing of Send Me a Lullaby. 
    • The Timeline: This is considered an original 1982 UK early pressing. When a record sold well or needed an immediate production run, independent labels like Rough Trade would dispatch master plates to multiple regional plants. 
    • The TY1 Connection: Because it features TY1, it means your copy was pressed using the original high-quality metal stampers created from Tim Young's initial lacquer cut. 
  • Thanks for looking!
