Different Class 30: Vinyl Box Set
711042Pre-Order Item. Release Date Subject to Change.
Label: UMR
Release Date: 24th October
A British 90s popular culture icon, a cornerstone on those 'ooo 'members the nineteeees' documentaries (currently 371 have been made with 6 in pre-production). The truth is Pulp had been kicking around the indie scene for a decade gradually honing their craft, gaining attention, momentum and in Jarvis Cocker a frontman/songwriter who was equally as compelling on stage as with his dry social commentary. It's 30 years old now and so it gets a lovely boxsetting with a double vinyl lp containing their iconic and legend making headlining set from Glastonbury 1995.
Different Class (originally released October 30, 1995) is Pulp's most successful album,
achieving multi-platinum sales and international acclaim, winning the 1996 Mercury Music
Prize and debuting at #1 on the UK Album Chart. It also produced four Top Ten singles,
including ‘Common People’.
Four months prior to the release of the album, the band headlined the Pyramid Stage at
Glastonbury Festival on Saturday 24 June. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of what is
widely regarded as one of the best records of the era, this legendary Glastonbury
performance, the audio wholly restored and released here for the first time, has been paired
with the remastered album (each cut over 2 LPs) and is released as a deluxe 4LP boxset.
The audio has been remastered/mastered by Geoff Pesche at Abbey Road, overseen by
Jarvis Cocker and Mark Webber, and is presented in a sturdy slipcase with a comprehensive,
28-page booklet featuring extensive notes from new interviews with the band members,
plus previously unseen images from photographers Rankin and Donald Milne (who took the
photos for the original release) and the band’s own archives. The original ‘aperture’ sleeve
design, which invited purchasers to “Choose your own front cover”, came with six double-
sided inserts/art cards of alternative cover images depicting cardboard cutouts of the band
members in a variety of situations. This has been fully recreated and a 12” by 12” poster
featuring miniatures of the cutouts themselves is also included.
