Never got on with The Verve beyond the singles, must revisit Urban Hymns at some point.Ocean Colour Scene and The Verve were much better bands than Oasis or Blur.

I think Urban Hymns is a masterpiece with not a bad song on it. I properly got into music the year it came out (aged 12) so maybe that has something to do with it.The album before that, a northern soul, is better in my opinion.

Belting out every word of their Glastonbury set when they reformed, with friends I've known since primary school, having thought I'd never see them live, was quite special.

Both superb albumsThe album before that, a northern soul, is better in my opinion.
What a songAnd the youngsters cry:
I'll have one to commiserate it. f*****g hate Oasis.30 years ago yesterday Oasis released their debut single Supersonic, which makes me feel f*****g ancient but might have a gin and tonic to commemorate it.

What I was listening to at 12 years old i think was whatever was on radio 1 or top of the pops at the time, so and was another year or so to get my first akai "walkman" and i could buy my own tapes and that was mainstream like Tears For Fear. Fair play for getting into the Verve at that age!I think Urban Hymns is a masterpiece with not a bad song on it.
