Monday's Long Song

Back in 2007 Will Carruthers made two cds available by mail order that consisted of outtakes and rehearsals of early Spiritualized recordings. On the communication regarding the Blue and Blue compilation he stated

"This will be the last of these

I feel that it hurts nobody

It is very limited, and I guess, is of specific interest to a small, but loyal following, only a percentage of who will actually buy it.

You, presumably want to hear it, and I, finally make a little return on the 

work that I put into these songs all those years ago,

I really enjoyed listening to this cd and it brought back some of the good times that I had whilst being involved with thee making of this music

I hope you find something you like.

If you could bear not to make these freely available to share for a month or so, you might give me the opportunity to flee the country before i am crushed like a bug by some monolithic organisation

Thank You

Will Carruthers"

Here from the first Spiritualized rehersal is a version of Sometimes which appeared on the final Spacemen 3 album recurring
