I'm sure it's called just that....Who's that Dressed in Black.
I can remember them playing that song live in Sydney back in 1986.

And that's where you'll find it-- "Who's That Dressed in Black" is from the Go-Betweens Live @ the Tivoli, Sydney 26 February 86.

(I'm so out of the loop, I hadn't heard of Grant McLennan's passing.)

Thanks S. and stranded! Actually this song was played in Manila's Legendary New Wave Radio station WXB102 wayback 1987 . The D.J. said the title was "Dressed In Black" but I have researched to have a copy of the song but to no avail[:(]. I recorded it on casette but lost it. I missed the song!! [;)]Havent heard it for TWO DECADES[:(]. Do you guys happened to have a copy of it?[:)] Thanks!

Yup G.Mclennan passed away last May2006[:(]. As his song goes" You gonna make it Easy Come, Easy Go".

Hey...no probs DSR,no I don't have a copy of the song. Infact from what I can gather it's not on any album or EP.
I've just registered on the Go Betweens web site and I'll post the question to see what the story is....ciao[8D]

Well DSR,by the look of things it's not called "Who's that Dressed in Black" after all.
It's called "Don't Let Him Come Back" and it's on the 78-79 Lost Album. It's also on the Liberty Belle & Black Diamond Express(Expanded Version) which has a bonus CD released in 2002 and it's on disc 2.But it says it's a new version of the song.[8D]

Thanks a lot stranded for the help[^]. Gosh, my brother just bought me the Belle CD few months ago there in Australia when he visited your country. It is not the expanded version.[:(] So I have to spend again[B)].
