Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Other uses Шаблон:Infobox album Fireboy is the second solo album by Grant McLennan, a member of the Go-Betweens. It was released in 1993. In the album's liner notes McLennan said the songs were for Gloria Swanson, Kenneth Slessor, Brett Whiteley and Dean Martin. Produced by Dave Dobbyn, it was recorded in Woolloomooloo. The first single was "Surround Me".

Critical reception

Шаблон:Album ratings Trouser Press called the album "a near-perfect convergence of observant, passionate words and jangly, surging tunes." The Calgary Herald wrote that McLennan "sings with conviction [and] poetic insight."

AllMusic wrote: "If there are hints of older rock styles here and there, McLennan's singing in particular still has the sharp, modern edge that helped make the Go-Betweens great, all while not losing his trademark warmth."
