Album Notes
Initial pressings of THE BEST OF included a live bonus disc.
Blur: Damon Albarn (vocals, keyboards); Graham Coxon (guitar); Alex James (bass); Dave Rowntree (drums).
Producers include: Stephen Street, William Orbit, Steve Lowell, Steve Power, Stephen Hague.
This Blur collection consists of a two-CD/one-DVD set that presents the revered Britpop group's BEST OF anthology, a disc of live performances, and a comprehensive assemblage of the band's videos. Along with Damon Albarn and the lads' best-known tunes ("Girls & Boys," "Song 2"), the studio disc includes the funky, previously unreleased "Music Is My Radar," while the concert album presents some tracks not on the former disc, including the spiky "Stereotypes" and the revved-up "M.O.R." Rounding out the set are the group's videos, which include visually stunning clips for "To the End" and "The Universal," among others.
