Early b-sides . . . not bad, guys

"I would suggest this more for hardcore blur fans who have already purchased all their regular CD's (or you could ommit "Blur" if you're not into that grungy stuff), who want more great songs in the vein of the first 3 albums. Except for "Peach" and "...Cows Come Home" [both of which are included on the US version of "Modern Life ..."] these are tough to find--and many of them are especially worth it, namely the early "Maggie May", "Mace", and "Theme from an Imaginary Film". Ever wonder where "Supa Shoppa" came from? [this is on their Budikan album] Well, it's on here. A couple of instrumentals, some more accoustic tracks; overall, it's one of the most worthwhile blur imports you can buy."
