    About Blur:
    Blur were formed in 1989 by Damon Albarn, Graham Coxon, Alex James and Dave Rowntree and signed with Food/EMI the same year. Announcing their arrival with debut album Leisure in 1991, Blur continued to revolutionise the sound of English popular music with second release Modern Life Is Rubbish (1993). Five successive UK #1 albums followed - with Parklife (1994) and The Great Escape (1995) helping to propel the band to mass popularity in the UK and beyond. The eponymous Blur was released in (1997) and seventh album Think Tank (2003) was Blur’s first as a three-piece after the temporary departure of founding guitarist Graham Coxon.
    Twenty one years after the release of their debut album, 2012 saw Blur 21: The Box, the band's body of work compiled and gathered together into one box. Their most recent release as a four-piece, the critically acclaimed chart-topping album The Magic Whip (2015), started life in Hong Kong when the band had an unexpected break in touring in May 2013.

    Graham's guitar skills are so underrated...I forgot how much I loved this song

    • @ValleyRC
      @ValleyRC 5 лет назад +13

      Agree. I'd be hard pushed to choose between Graham and Bernard as my favourite from the britpop era. Graham's tone is so recognisable and he can play pretty clean but he's at his best when he's playing like this with the whole disjointed "stupid genius" style, it's really pleasing to the ear. Just so perfectly executed. So many random notes and noises but in reality, each one chosen with purpose and precision.
      I love Bernie too though, very creative and his impatient noodling that doesn't match the vocal melody really beats a boring riff. Great tone also and a trebley aggression even in the softer songs that gives them a kind of unsettling edge.

    Dave on drums does his job without delay. Damon continually transforms his voice and accompanies with simple, clean chords; Alex, with his (deliberately out-of-tune) bass lines, covers Damon's gaps. And Graham, histrionic guitarist, touches high peaks by diversifying rhythms and breaks before exploding with fury in the final part...what comes out is a fantastic song that gradually evolves with ‘natural imperfection’. Country Sad Ballad Man should be included in all their live setlists!☺

    Reminds me of, and testing my memory actually is, a tribute to Pavement. The sort of lazy, off-beat country riffs sounds a lot like Range Life and other songs from Slanted and Enchanted and also Beck's (official) debut Mellow Gold. You can also hear them on the solo to You're So Great. I'd deffo check them out if you like this stuff. One of the greatest Blur songs on my favourite Blur album.
