REWIND: The Bluetones - 'Bluetonic'

Posted on the 15 September 2013 by Rw/ff @rwffmusic
Most "casual" music fans will know this lot for their 1996 hit 'Slight Return', but The Bluetones were in fact one of the best singles acts of the era, scoring no less than thirteen Top 40 hits. In my weekly RW/FF With Ben P Scott columns, I go back in time and relive my memories of the music that soundtracked my life, and for the last few months I have been recalling the music of 1995. 

Later this week (or possibly next week) I will be publishing my multi-part 'Best Of 1995' compilation on this site, where you will also be able to listen to the whole thing via Mixcloud. Originally released in 1995 before appearing on the following year's 'Expecting To Fly' LP, the brilliant 'Bluetonic' was their third single release. After splitting in 2011, frontman Mark Morriss has embarked on a solo career and will be releasing his new album 'A Flash Of Darkness' very soon via Acid Jazz Records.
