Blur - The Spotify Radio Show - Programme 3, Link 1

Blur remastered
The Spotify Radio Shows
Programme three
Just over 20 years ago a band formed in South London
Who became one of the biggest musical forces of that decade
They also became the cornerstone of britpop
They are Blur

I'm Gary Crowley, and over the next 30 minutes
I'll be taking you through the third Blur album
These special Spotify radio shows are in celebration
Of Blur 21, a special anniversary for the band
Commemorating a huge remastering exercise
For both Blur and EMI
Of all of Blur's albums to date
Each album has been reissued with an entire disc of newly mastered
Bonus material from all of the B sides
Unreleased tracks, radio sessions, and fan club singles
It's truly great stuff

Today I'm looking at a record that was released in April '94
It saw Blur secure their first UK number one album
And has now been remastered from the original tapes by Frank Arkwright
Overseen by legendary original producer Steven Street
Let's start with the record's opening track
And the band's biggest hit single up to that point
It is of course Girls and Boys from Blur's legendary album
Parklife
