The Bite
A Wootton song from side two of First Utterance, recorded at Pye in the winter of 1970.
Comus, from First Utterance (1971)
"The Bite" was written by Wootton and is the fifth track on the album, 5:27 by Wikipedia and 5:26 on one lyrics site. It was recorded with the rest of the album in November and December 1970 at Pye Studios and was not a single. No comment from the band on its subject was found; one lyrics site describes it as the narrative of a Christian facing execution, which is that site's description and not the band's.
Setlist.fm records five plays, without first and last dates. No covers, samples or video were found, and our upload is presumably the studio album version.
