The Blue Nile return! Really!

Just when it seemed so unlikely The Blue Nile, the legendary pop band last seen eight years ago with Peace At Last, return with a new album, High, on August 30, apparently released by Sanctuary Records. Another great comeback release for that label after Morrissey's wonderful new album, You Are The Quarry, which followed a seven years silence...
The Blue Nile were the only band in the 80s to match Prefab Sprout's talent for intelligent and emotional pop music. They released even less records, as High will be only their fourth... Peace At Last was a much delayed following to their two true masterpieces, A Walk Across The Rooftops and Hats.
