Fellow Twins Elizabeth Fraser and Robin Guthrie appeared on ‘Blame Someone Else’, as did late-period member Mitsuo Tate. But Cocteau Twins were no more by the time it was out. Originally issued in October 1997, it became the first release on Bella Union, a new label run by Robin and Simon. And now by Simon alone. Circumstances change and ‘Blame Someone Else’ unexpectedly arrived in a world where Cocteau Twins were in the past. Twenty-five years later, ‘Blame Someone Else’ is now being released under the name ‘Solo Works 96-98’, appearing on vinyl for the first time, and with the addition of the three bonus tracks from 1998’s Japan-only edition. “It was begun in 1996 at a time of turmoil with Cocteau Twins,” says Simon of the album now. “At the time, I was unsure if I should make the album but my bandmates were extremely supportive, their encouragement helped me get the record finished. It took me 25 years to feel comfortable with these songs being available again. We all have hurdles to get over before we can feel ready to let go of certain things. Today, I feel that the first-ever release on Bella Union should once again be an active part of the label’s history, if only to bookmark these first 25 years.” Artist Simon Raymonde Genre Rock And Pop Label Bella Union Buying Options 1LP Format 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings It’s A Family Thing Love Undone The Seventh Day In My Place Supernatural If I Knew Myself It’s Raining Today Muscle and Want Worship Me A Fault Of Mine Days Tired Twilight Summer's Blue Left Untouched The Flowers Grow Let Love In Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Rock And Pop View Product Quick View Norah Jones Playdate Rock And Pop | Blue Note | 12", EP/Mini Album Released 27th November 2020 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Norah Jones Playdate £18.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Blue Note SKU: 74939 Formats: 12", EP/Mini Album Released Date: 27th November 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Enigma A Posteriori Rock And Pop | UMC | 180g, 1LP Released 23rd July 2021 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Enigma A Posteriori £22.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: UMC SKU: 3576476 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 23rd July 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Marianne Faithful Give My Love To London Rock And Pop | Naive | 180g, 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Gatefold Sleeve Released 30th June 2023 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Marianne Faithful Give My Love To London £21.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Naive SKU: BLV7864 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 30th June 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View All We Are All We Are (Indies Only) Rock And Pop | Double Six | 1LP, Includes 7" Released 2nd February 2015 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders All We Are All We Are (Indies Only) £20.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Double Six SKU: DS091LPX Formats: 1LP, Includes 7" Released Date: 2nd February 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Roxette Joyride (30th Anniversary) Deluxe Edition Rock And Pop | Rhino | 1LP, 4LP, Box Set, Coloured Vinyl Released 26th November 2021 £19.00 - £79.00 Select options Roxette Joyride (30th Anniversary) Deluxe Edition £19.00 - £79.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Rhino Formats: 1LP, 4LP, Box Set, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 26th November 2021 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Prefab Sprout I Trawl The Megahertz Rock And Pop | Sony Music | 2LP, Includes Download Code Released 30th January 2019 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Prefab Sprout I Trawl The Megahertz £21.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Sony Music SKU: 88985411061 Formats: 2LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 30th January 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Devo Hardcore Devo Live!
