A Britpop Education : The Album

[Blackend Blood 90 :)]

Well there`s not really an order to it , i`m just uploading stuff as I find it

[Larisa F]

That Screamadelica song is good.

[~*~Ashlyn~*~]

Pulp is the **** i have this is hardcore.

[lover_chick93]

I fell asleep. The Auteurs tune was good, as were a few others.

[Metrallo]

OK then , the second installment.......

1. OOBERMAN - A MILLION SUNS
One of the best pure pop banRAB I have ever heard. I thought they`d vanished ages ago. Found out they put out their first album for 4 years last Monday....weird

2. DELICATESSEN - HUSTLE INTO BED
This lot were amazing , like a cross between Nick Cave & 'BenRAB' era Radiohead. I never did get around to buying thier 3rd album , which according to John Peel was their best.

3. SPIRITUALIZED - COME TOGETHER
Not the version of the song that was on the 'Ladies & Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space' album , this is a version of the song of the Abbey Road E.P. where the band recorded it with a full orchestra .

4. CHINA DRUM - WUTHERING HEIGHTS
The Kate Bush classic "performed" by a bunch of pissed up Geordies

5. MANSUN - TAKE IT EASY CHICKEN
Their first single , which didn`t get on their debut album. Still my favouite Mansun song.

6. THE FALL - LOST IN MUSIC
Yes this is a cover of the disco classic originally recorded by Nile Rodgers & Chic. And it`s f*cking brilliant.Hear a dour Mancunian git (Mark E Smith , not Right-Track )drawling his way though this classic dancefloor filler.

7. BLACK GRAPE - KELLY`S HEROES
Shaun Ryders post Happy Mondays band joining him up with Kermit of The Ruthless Rap Assassins , and of course Bez. Mad as a box of frogs.

8. BIS - KANDY POP
My sister loved them , I hated them .... you decide.

9. DEATH IN VEGAS - AISHA
The best dance/rock crossover band ever to come out of the UK , this wonderful song features the vocal talents of Mr Iggy Pop.

10. CARTER THE UNSTOPPABLE SEX MACHINE - SHERIFF FATMAN
Carter USM , a.k.a. Jirabob & Fruitbat. Described as a cross between The Clash & The Pet Shop Boys. Were all over the charts at the beginning of the 90s , this was their biggest hit single.

11. MANIC STREET PREACHERS - PENNY ROYAL TEA
A cover of the Nirvana song recorded for Jo Whiley & Steve Lamacq`s evening session around 1995.

12. B.M.X. BANDITS - SERIOUS DRUGS
Scottish C86 style acoustic indie from Creation recorRAB , never got the recognition they deserved.

13. DRUGSTORE - EL PRESIDENT
A.K.A. Kill The President. Decent band from London with a Brazilian vocalist who were in the press a fair amount at the time. This song is primarily remerabered for one reason.Lead singer Isabel Monteiro duets with RadioheaRAB Thom Yorke on it.

14. THEAUDIENCE - PENIS SIZE AND CARS
Before she was a dance pop diva Sophie Ellis Bexter was in a half decent indie band called Theaudience. This is probably the best song they recorded.

15. GOLDBUG - WHOLE LOTTA LOVE
An interesting cover that turns the Led Zep song into something thats pure pop and then adRAB samples of the Pearl & Dean cinema adverts.It`s not quite a dance version of the song , it`s closer to the sort of thing that the Scissor Sisters did with Comfortable Nurab It`s one of those covers you either love or hate.

16. MENSWE@R - DAYDREAMER
They were the boyband of Britpop but I don`t care , this is a great Wire tinged debut single and I still love it and I don`t care what anybody says.

It`s all in MP3 this time

Well thanks for that Urban another interesting mix of songs. Some absolute turd and some brilliance. Death in Vegas has to be the highlight I reckon. :laughing:
