Spanish Blue is the second single released by The Triffids in 1982. The single was produced by Les Karski (Midnight Oil, The Nauts). The single was initially released independently by The Triffids but was re-released following the bands signing with White Label Records.
They'd recorded "Spanish Blue" when the spectre of the Gudinski organisation loomed, and they were summoned to the Mushroom/White Citadel. Gudinski liked "Spanish Blue". 'It was just that he wanted us to re-write it, and re-mix it,' McComb laughs. 'We ended up putting it out ourselves immediately they started dilly dallying because we said we wouldn't re-mix it. We thought that we couldn't just wait for people to decide what they wanted to do.'[1]
