about

Richard Blackborow explained the background of the band’s choice of song to GIITTV: ‘Simon Armstrong and I were big fans of The Byrds right from the very start of BOB. In fact, although the Beatles were also big for us, it was listening to The Byrds – in particular their 5D and Younger Than Yesterday albums – that really fired us up to want to sing two-part harmony together. If you couple that with the fact that our friend and Sombrero Records founder, Ally Payne, had lent us her Baldwin electric 12-string guitar for use for a weekend recording in our little 8-track studio, then you get the recording of “Who You Are”. The song was written in 1989 and wasn’t released officially until it made the cut for our Leave The Straight Life Behind album in 1991, but this early demo version, featuring Dean Leggett on drums and Jem Morris on bass, has a freshness and sparkle about it that deserves a release of its own, I think’.
