I don't know what the reason is; The Kaiser Chiefs, Brett Anderson and Bernard Butler reuniting, the ten year anniversary of Blur vs. Oasis, but every second article I read in a music mag seems to make some reference to Brit Pop. Most of the comments are derogatory but I still can't stop myself from being over whelmed with teenage nostalgia whenever I think of Shine Compilations, Select Magazine, TFI Friday and borrowing tapes off my friends in transition year. Now while I acknowledge that an awful lot of the music labelled with the Brit Pop moniker was rubbish (i.e. most of it) surely there must be some tunes that stand the test of time. In the spirit of the many compilation tapes which I accumulated between 94 and 98 here's my track listing for my "Not all Brit Pop was sh*t" tape; Ash - Girl From Mars Suede - The Drowners Spiritualized - Come Together Oasis - Live Forever Teenage Fanclub - Sparky's Dream The Charlatans - How High Black Grape - Reverend Black Grape Primal Scream - Burning Wheel Blur - To The End Supergrass - Caught By The Fuzz The Bluetones - Slight Return Elastica - Connection Pulp - Do You Remember The First Time Radiohead - Fake Plastic Trees The Divine Comedy - National Express Super Furry Animals - The Man Don't Give a F*ck The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony The Stone Roses - Ten Storey Love Song (And although they're both Swedish I also included these two to make it an even 20); The Cardigans - Rise And Shine The Wannadies - You And Me Song If anybody else wants to submit their own track listing here's a few bands from that era that I omitted; Kula Shaker The Stereophonics Ocean Colour Scene Catatonia Terrorvision Sleeper Gorky's Zygotic Mynci Dodgy The Supernaturals Menswear The Boo Radleys Edwyn Collins Saint Etienne Shed Seven Mansun The Manic Street Preachers Reef Space Hurricane #1 Paul Wellar Cast Embrace Travis Babybird Echobelly The Seahorses James Gene The Longpigs Republica Kenickie Northern Uproar Symposium 3 Colours Red Geneva The Candyskins Salad 18 Wheeler Heavy Stereo Marion
