“Right Here” by The Go-Betweens

"Right Here" led the way for Tallulah, the Go-Betweens' fifth album, hitting British shops on Beggars Banquet in February 1987 as a seven-inch and a 12-inch with "When People Are Dead" on the flip. True Tone put the Australian band's single out back home, and Big Time Records issued it in the States as a promo.

Grant McLennan takes the lead vocal on a song he wrote with Robert Forster, who plays guitar beside him and sings backup with Amanda Brown, whose violin gives the thing its sweet sting. Robert Vickers plays bass, and Craig Leon adds keyboards, mixed it, and produced it with Richard Preston and Cassell Webb. It scraped to number 82 in the UK and no further, which says more about the charts than about the song.
