Here is more from the Huw Davies film of 1983, this time cut to a soundtrack of Tender Blue. We are being driven in a taxi through London, heading to Power Plant Studios in Willesden, where we recorded both Eden and Love Not Money. Arriving at the studio we make our way inside, Ben with a cigarette glued between his lips, Tracey spiky-haired and skinny. In the control room Tracey sits and chats with Robin Millar, who produced those first two records, and then Robin comes and messes around at the piano with Ben.

We are only 21 years old in this footage. Still students at university. We had already recorded Eden, though it hadn’t yet been released. Tender Blue seemed to provide the perfect soundtrack, and as the car speeds through the dark at the beginning, you could almost imagine you were watching some 1950s jazz documentary. There is a timeless quality to it all - to us it feels both a hundred years ago and like it all happened yesterday.
