"It was a very straightforward life in a way. We were in a green suburb, it was quite idyllic. You do get a very good run with childhood in Australia." Robert Forster joins Stuart to discuss his idyllic youth in Australia, the early years of The Go-Betweens, and why the classic Cattle and Cane track was an attempt to make a mark upon post-punk music.
