Title: Bloomsbury Blue
Post by: Adam on September 08, 2009, 09:36:02 PM
Bloomsbury Blue (from Consonant Please Carol) popped up on my I-pod yesterday, and I'd forgotton just how good it is (driving chorus, and a little bit saucy and seedy  ;D). I'm pretty sure that it was never played live - can anyone confirm?

I think it would be a great 'rare' song to perform on the next tour..whilst I'm at it, 'Caught a Whisper' must also be due for an airing...solo songs, I know, but would work well in the current band context.

Is this song originally performed by Ruby Blue? [I think the playwright David Mamet might have been a co-author.]
