Good Together is a 1989 album by English post-punk band A Certain Ratio (ACR). Though the band had signed to A&M Records in 1987, they lost the attention of the public as it was not until the summer of 1989 that new album arrived.[2] When it did, the hoped for more accessible sound of the singles "The Big E" and "Backs To The Wall" failed to secure hits. A third single "Your Blue Eyes" appeared on an EP in 1990.[3] Their next album, acr:mcr, followed on A&M the next year. Due to the lack of success of both albums, the band left A&M shortly after.[4][5]
