Blur - Midlife: A Beginner's Guide to Blur
Brit Pop legends Blur are to reunite this summer, marking their 20th anniversary by playing their first shows with Graham Coxon since 2000. Their first eagerly awaited Hyde Park date sold out within minutes and due to the massive demand more dates and festival appearances have steadily been added.
To celebrate the reunion and the massive profile generated, Midlife: A Beginners Guide To Blur will be released to present a unique collection of the band’s career. Standing separate from Blur’s previous Best Of, Midlife represents a comprehensive collection of their biggest hits and favourite album tracks. The tracklist has been handpicked by the band and offers a deeper look at the group’s entire musical output across a single stand-alone 2CD format.
Midlife includes album tracks Sing (Leisure), Strange News From Another Star (Blur), Badhead and This Is A Low (Parklife), which all sit alongside hit singles Girls & Boys (Parklife), Parklife (Parklife), The Universal (Great Escape), and Beetlebum (Blur). The collection will also include Popscene which was originally released in 1992 as a non-album single and has not been available since.
Release Date : 15 Jun 2009
