The Whitlams - Little Cloud [2CD Set] (2006)

Little Cloud is the sixth studio album by Australian band The Whitlams, released by Black Yak through Warner in 2006. It debuted at number four on the ARIA Albums Chart.

The first disc, entitled Little Cloud, is about returning to Australia from overseas in an election year. The second disc, The Apple's Eye, is mostly thematically centred in New York City. The majority of the album was written by singer/songwriter Tim Freedman whilst he lived for several months in New York.

The first single to be taken from the album is "I Was Alive". Released to radio only, Freedman described the track as "a barroom stomp with honky-tonk piano, real old-fashioned Whitlams". "Fondness Makes The Heart Grow Absent" was the band's second single, and was also radio-only. "Beauty In Me" was released as a radio-only single in November 2006. A re-recorded version of 'Beautiful as You' was released as a CD single in February, 2007.

"The Curse Stops Here" was the lead topic in an article by The Age newspaper, promoting the release of the album. The Sydney Morning Herald spoke to Freedman about the album and his life in and around The Whitlams.

The album peaked at number four on the ARIA Albums Chart and was awarded Gold status in Australia in 2006. It was released in the UK as Little Cloud by Tim Freedman.
