A Bit Of A Blur (I do apologise)

1991 and Madchester is still fashionable. Blur jump on the bandwagon on this listenable debut.
Modern Life Is RubbishModern Life Is Rubbish by Blur
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £0.99
Doc Martins, corduroy and Kinks-y music. The birth of Britpop and Blur have found their niche.

Breakthrough. Pop songs, lager chants and wistful ballads. A modern classic.
The Great EscapeThe Great Escape by Blur
Buy new: £4.88 / Used from: £0.56
Perhaps Blur took the Britannia fixation one album too far on this. Still, it's got "The Universal" on it.

Personal favourite. Coxon wrestles the steering wheel from Albarn and Blur look west to the US indie rock scene. Woooo and indeed hooo!

Albarn spilts from his long time lover and writes a few pearls like "Tender" and "No Distance Left To Run". A little less scribble between the tracks and it may have been Blur's finest album.

Coxon is gone, Gorillaz are huge and Blur seem to limp into the 21st century. For all that, a fine album.

Quintessential album for any "student" of 90's british music. (They will exist, you know)
Bustin' + Dronin'Bustin' + Dronin' by Blur
Buy used from: £7.45
I dunno, maybe you will enjoy the remixes on disc 1. But just listen to the live session recorded at John Peels house in 1997 on disc 2. "It rocks" as a spotty adolesant might say.
