best Blur album ?
 
my vote goes to think tank.

al shabbray 09.29.2008 01:00 PM

ok disqualified myself

Glice 09.29.2008 01:00 PM

Difficult, except to say that it's definitely not the Great Escape and probably not Leisure.

mil_pl 09.29.2008 01:03 PM

but if you have to choose one ?

al shabbray 09.29.2008 01:04 PM

i know 2blur" thats the one with song 2 on it, isnt it? thats pretty good as far as I can remember

mil_pl 09.29.2008 01:07 PM

it's Blur - Blur, and yeah it's pretty good. same as 13.

jimbrim 09.29.2008 01:07 PM

Defiently Parklife, a perfect pop record.

Pookie 09.29.2008 01:10 PM

All of their albums have some good tracks.

But they all have lots of bad tracks.

Is there a "best of"? I'd go with that if there is.

Pookie 09.29.2008 01:11 PM

There is:
 

Where is it on the list?

jimbrim 09.29.2008 01:12 PM

Yeah, they have a collection of their singles i think.

Edit: Yep that!^^

batreleaser 09.29.2008 01:18 PM

i really love '13', that gets my vote. people are always shocked when they find out im a blur fan, im like, "why, theyre great?". coxon has such a great guitar tone.

"so gimme coffee and tv"

al shabbray 09.29.2008 01:19 PM

yes I always liked coxons style, why did he left the band?

jimbrim 09.29.2008 01:19 PM

he got kicked out i think, not sure why.

al shabbray 09.29.2008 01:21 PM

really? I thought he was one of the founding members

jimbrim 09.29.2008 01:24 PM

Yeah he probably was, but I do remember reading somewhere it was a group decision to kick him out. Maybe they just didnt need his guitar sound for the last record.

cuz we are talking here about the albums, the best of is you know :p

radarmaker 09.29.2008 01:30 PM

The self titled is probably the one I hate least.

noisereductions 09.29.2008 01:31 PM

I hate to be obvious, but BLUR is the shiz. 13 and MODERN LIFE are close ties for 2nd place, but the s/t is so solid.

he played on the last track 'Battery In Your Leg' on Think Tank.

as far as I know there were quarrel's between Damon & Graham.

and yeah Graham was the second guy after Damon, who had most influence about Blur sound.

ploesj: where are you? hope you like Blur music!
