''Amber Headlights'' is an album by
Greg Dulli, released in 2005.
Production
In 2001, Dulli started to work on the follow-up to
The Twilight Singers' debut album ''
Twilight as Played by The Twilight Singers''. However, the death of his close friend
Ted Demme in January 2002 led him to decide to start a new project in tribute to Demme that would eventually become ''
Blackberry Belle''.
The song "Cigarettes" became "Follow You Down" on ''Blackberry Belle''. Three years later, Dulli decided to release the songs on his own label, Infernal Recordings.
