Originally written before the Rockfield 96 album recording session and committed to tape in early January 96, 'Bittersweet Blue' was jettisoned in favour of other songs.

As we prepared to put together the 1977 30th anniversary package, detective Wheeler resolved the ancient mystery, discovering it had been mislabelled way back when.
What we had was a usable drum take, bass, some rhythm guitars, a scratch vocal and not much else. Not even lyrics. Tim delivered, writing lyrics and resurrecting this long lost treasure for your listening pleasure.

It made perfect sense with all of the above going into this for us to shoot the video back in the rehearsal space in the bands formative years. It's where we played the song for the first time all those years ago. And it means so much to have this space immortalised for all time.

Thirty years in the making; this is 'Bittersweet Blue’.
