Blur - Blur

Food FOODCD019. 1997


I'm making no apologies, I think this is alright, alright?

I like Beetlebum. I like Song No. 2. I like that Coxon uses a Pro-Co Turbo Rat distortion pedal on it, which was my favourite piece of kit before it was nicked a couple of years ago, along with most of my other guitar stuff. My lovely old sample/delay pedal that I used on most of my tunes during the early 90s. My beautiful, pointy-headstocked Charvel Model 1 (Kahler tremelo model, not the inferior Floyd Rose model that followed). Ibanez Tube Screamer. There are tears in my eyes.

Highlights: The two aforementioned dittys, and I really like the chorus bits of Death of a party
