Leisure [LP]

Leisure is where Blur began: the 1991 debut from Damon Albarn, Graham Coxon, Alex James and Dave Rowntree, recorded while baggy and shoegaze were still ruling British indie. The swirling guitars and lazy grooves of "She's So High" and the Top 10 hit "There's No Other Way" show a young band absorbing their surroundings, while "Sing" and "Birthday" hint at the ambition that would soon drive the Britpop years. Reissued here on a single vinyl LP, it is an essential first chapter for anyone following the band's story.
