We visit the 3rd album by the mighty Blur titled ‘Parklife’, which in many ways marked the of birth of Britpop. TD confuses and contradicts whilst addressing the albums ‘diddy’, WG resorts to counter the ‘diddy’ argument by insisting TD plays the most random of ‘diddys’, and all the while it’s apparent The Golden Ducks…
For our 2nd Episode, we tackle, the 2nd studio album by English rock band Oasis – (What’s The Story) Morning Glory?
Claimed to have sold over 22 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time, and appears on several lists of the greatest albums in rock music.
As of July 2018, it is the UK’s 5th best-selling album of all time, having sold over 4.7 million copies, and was also the biggest-selling album of the 1990s in the UK.
This week’s conversation is on British rock band Radiohead’s album – The Bends.
Their second studio album, released on 13 March 1995 saw the band progress musically from their debut album, Pablo Honey.
While the band didn’t quite scale the peaks that their debut single had in the US charts, peaking in the US charts at #88, it reached #4 on the UK charts.
Critically acclaimed by some, slated by others, the band themselves would come to love some songs of the album, and hate others.
Amid a torturous few years for the band, this was the perfect album for them to create as the prelude to their career defining release a few years later.
