2004 - Blindness
28 June: Single - Theme from Sparta FC #2 ?? July: Single - 2 Librans 4 August: 24th (and final) John Peel Session - Clasp Hands, Blindness, What About Us?, Right Place, Wrong Time/I Can Hear The Grass Grow (plus Job Search which was recorded but not played on the show until a couple of weeks later - after it had been pressed on a one-off single for Peel's 65th birthday.) ?? September: Single - Blind Man 1 November: Live and rehearsals album - Interim "Have mercy on me" Some revolving door group action this year as Dave Milner left to be replaced behind the drum-kit by Spencer Birtwistle (who'd left at the end of 2001), and Jim Watts, who'd left/been fired in the spring of 2003 was back on bass later in the year. If you think you know Sparta FC inside out by now, think again. The single is a super-aggressive version with plenty of Elena backing vocals. Marvellous. It's backed with a very acceptable live version of My Ex-Classmates Kids . As for
