Tragedy queen... well, you set the scene'
Released in 1991, Sarah #45 - 'Torment to me' - was the second and final 7" single put out on the Sarah label by Leeds-based lazy pop-janglers Gentle Despite. 'Shadow of a girl' was also included on the compilation record 'Fountain Island' (#583). I've always thought this was just one of those B-sides that you kinda wish would go on forever and ever; I mean, it's over six minutes long as it is but it never feels long enough, somehow. You get to the end of the groove and you put it right back to where it all started. This is a perfect Sunday afternoon piece of vinyl, really - blissed out, serene and lovely (and there isn't an awful lot more to be said than that).
