Robert Forster - Strawberries LP
As on most of the album, the narrator clearly isn't Forster himself, just as he's not the English teacher meeting a
French woman in the album's bouncy opener “Tell it Back to Me”. “Your world so different to mine”, Forster
sings, “I was corporate, you were folk.” Clearly, this relationship was never going to last, but then again, as
Robert observes in the next song, it's “good to cry”. As his slapback echo vocals tuck into the rockabilly vibe of
the song, you can hear Forster enjoying the company of his Swedish backing band: Producer Peter Morén (of
Peter, Björn and John fame) on guitar, Jonas Thorell on bass and Magnus Olsson on drums, crucially
augmented by Lina Langendorf on various woodwind instruments and Anna Åhman on keys.
