Released:  06/09/2024

Notes: (Written prior to release of or hearing of the compilation) The new CD is a compilation of early singles, demos and other rarities - Welcome, Pumilio Pinehole and Wind Chimes are all new titles to me, so unless they're new titles for older songs, these are never-before-heard tunes.

The Paul Northfield Radio Edit of Bright Ambassadors was previously released on the Valour EP.

In the Realms of the Divine
was also the name used for a bootleg/ YouTube playlist. While not officially sanctioned, posts from the PRR forum indicate the band were aware of its existence. The bootleg was a mixture of early PRR demos and material from the Sunset Sound days that had elements of the PRR sound, whether or not it went on to be released as PRR material, and some of this material seems likely to be featured on the new CD.

The table below contains the tracklisting of the bootleg with notes on the versions compared to the new release.
