Search - Various Artists :: Brit Pop Box

2009 three CD set, common People is a comprehensive journey through the Brit Pop era. The 54 track set has been carefully compiled to include the big names of the era, such as Suede, Pulp, Elastica, Supergrass, The Bluetones, Shed Seven - along with forgotten gems from artists like Marion Salad, Rialto, Powder (Pearl Lowe's band!) - and everything else in between. Always much more than just the pantomime battle between Oasis and Blur, Common People charts the real story that lay beyond and celebrates the great singles and tracks that helped define the era. The beautifully art-worked box-set features 54-tracks, comprehensive sleeve notes from Saint Etienne's Bob Stanley (alsoa Melody Maker journalist at the time) and a lavish 24-page booklet in the style of the classic Select issue in April 1993 which heralded the beginnings of Britpop.
