Last week, I took some time to listen to all of Blur’s albums in their discography. I’ve been a longtime fan of this band. The only albums I’ve heard by Blur over the years was “Parklife” and their 1997 self titled album with the hit song, “Song 2” on it. I decided to listen to the rest of their albums and all 8 Blur albums are really great. They’re really great songwriters. Their music can get pretty tight and unique.
I even listened to their new album, “The Magic Whip” a couple of times which is a really good record. You should check it out yourself. “The Magic Whip” is definitely one of the best new records of this year. I heard all 8 of their albums, thanks to Apple Music.
I’m sure you’ve heard of Blur before but you’ve probably only heard their songs on the radio, the internet or have seen their videos. You should listen to their records too. The singer has a good voice and I dig their guitar playing as well.
Blur rocks.

Blur, who is a rock band from the UK just announced their first album in 12 years titled, “The Magic Whip”. Their last album they released was “Think Tank” which I have never heard yet.
While I am a fan of Blur, I only heard two of their albums. Their albums, “Parklife” and their 1997 self-titled album which includes their hit “Song 2”.
Blur is a pretty good band and looking forward to hearing what their next album is gonna sound like.

The Glastonbury UK music festival is announced, see the official line up here:

While Neil Young and Bruce Springsteen are both scheduled to perform on a different night, you know those two will pull on a surprise jam session where they will play guitar and sing together for a few songs. I’m sure Neil will probably perform his new album, “Fork In the Road”, in it’s entirety at Glastonbury during his set. Of course, Neil will play all of his classics too.
They can do without Lady Gaga being part of the fest, it’s not a bad lineup. I personally think Glastonbury should ditch Lady Gaga and book M.I.A instead.

The long rumours of Neil Young and Blur headlining Glastonbury festival has just came true. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, Neil Young, and Blur are the three big headliners for this year’s festival in the UK.
Neil Young is set to release a new studio album titled “Fork In the Road”, later this year.

Big fan of all three acts, Glastonbury looks great this year!
I’m also looking forward to picking up Neil’s new album as well. Neil is a hero of mine. I own ten of Neil’s albums in my CD collection, big fan.
