of the Go-Betweens. The title actually derives from a stock market term relating to the daily price which is set for gold. The album is unique among the Church's releases in the absence of any 12-string electric guitar. The missing trademark sound was due to guitarist Marty Willson-Piper's 12-string Rickenbacker having been stolen during the previous tour.
