Its third single "Heavy Heart", is one of their well known songs and has been covered by different artists, Paul Kelly, Ben Lee, Lisa Mitchell, TZU, Courtney Barnett, and the Supersuckers. You Am I recorded #4 Record with producer George Drakoulias. His work schedule was described by front man, vocalist and guitarist, Tim Rogers, they were put "through the wringer," with high standards for the scansion of the vocal performance, which he wanted to capture on the recordings. The album was recorded during an unhappy period for the band. "It was the worst recording experience. Rusty, Andy and I didn't hang out." Rogers later said. Background Work for #4 Record, You Am I's fourth studio album, began late in 1997 with George Drakoulias (the Black Crowes, the Jayhawks) producing at his Sound City Studios in Los Angeles, again. The line-up of the band was Rusty Hopkinson on drums and percussion, Andy Kent on bass guitar and Tim Rogers on lead vocals and guitar. Drakoulias had previously recorded the group in 1996. The limited edition version, issued in May 1998, included a bonus disc of nine tracks, Radio Settee, which was recorded for youth radio station Triple J's programme Live at the Wireless. Reception Australian musicologist, Ian McFarlane believes it is "lean, nifty rock’n’roll"; while music journalist, Ed Nimmervoll observed it was a "back-to-basics" album. Rolling Stone Australias writer claimed the album, "strikes perhaps the group's best balance between pure pop and jagged, potent riffola: even if the American producer did his best to sand the rough edges off 'Billy' and the great rock & roll radio pop of 'Rumble'." AllMusic's Jack Rabid said the band, "finally makes some headway toward matching its vicious, chaotic live intensity. You have an LP that beguiles, teases, sweetens, and often throbs in popcraft. It also blasts in fits and starts of harsh edge, chops, infectious attitude, and, when it suits them, abandon." Andrew Bartlett of Woroni felt, "As well as being fine listening, there's some lyrical usage worth noting on this disc." Ranked as 19th most under-rated album of all time,
