Simon Raymonde recorded his solo album 'Blame Someone Else' while still in Cocteau Twins. 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 with the addition of the three bonus tracks from 1998's Japan-only edition.
